Christian Pulisic is winning over a lot of AC Milan fans quickly, none quite as entertainingly as MilanTV announcer Mauro Suma.
Pulisic has scored in both of his first two Milan appearances, with each of his goals greeted by an incredibly enthusiastic rendition of “USA! USA! USA!” from Suma.
First there was Pulisic’s debut goal against Bologna, a stunner from distance. Then Pulisic scored again versus Torino, this time from a bit closer.
On both occasions Suma interrupts his flow in Italian to deliver his version of the ubiquitous chant heard at most international events involving an American team.
🇺🇸 “USA! USA! USA!”

We are even willing to look past Suma’s usage of the “Captain America” moniker that Pulisic himself doesn’t love. When you are this committed to the bit, it’s hard to quibble with the odd detail here and there.
