Christian Pulisic breaks two records with crucial away goal for Chelsea against Real Madrid

Posted by

It was a great night for Chelsea attacking midfielder Christian Pulisic as his away goal put the Blues in the driving seat in their Champions League semi-final clash with Real Madrid.

The USA international danced his way through the Real Madrid defence with a superb solo goal to give Chelsea the lead, and they surely remain the favourites to go through to the final even though Karim Benzema later equalised for the home side.

As well as giving Chelsea a priceless away goal, Pulisic managed to make two pieces of history in the process, becoming both the first American player to score in a Champions League semi-final, and the youngest ever player to score for Chelsea at this stage of the competition…

This is some achievement by Pulisic, who seems to finally be influencing games for CFC more than he did when he first joined and took time to settle in.
