AC Milan continued their impressive start to the 2026\/27 Serie A season with a convincing 2-0 victory over Udinese at Stadio Friuli. Christian Pulisic’s early opener and Omari Hutchinson’s second-half strike secured three valuable points, extending Milan’s unbeaten league run to eight matches for the first time since 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pulisic Gives AC Milan a Dream Start<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Milan wasted little time establishing their authority, breaking the deadlock after just six minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Veteran midfielder Luka Modric delivered a perfectly timed free-kick over Udinese’s defensive line, allowing Christian Pulisic to beat the offside trap and calmly finish into the bottom corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The early goal handed Ruben Amorim’s side a crucial advantage, but Udinese refused to surrender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hassane Kamara tested goalkeeper Mike Maignan with a powerful long-range effort, while Mergim Vojvoda and Jesper Karlstrom also threatened from distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite promising attacking spells, Udinese struggled to turn possession into clear-cut chances, leaving Milan ahead 1-0 at halftime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hutchinson Doubles Milan’s Lead After the Break<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Udinese returned from the interval determined to restore parity, with Vojvoda firing another effort wide from outside the penalty area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Milan gradually regained control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pulisic nearly doubled his tally, but goalkeeper Maduka Okoye denied him at the near post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rossoneri eventually found their second goal midway through the second half when Ardon Jashari’s low shot forced Okoye into a save. The goalkeeper could only push the ball into the six-yard area, where Omari Hutchinson reacted quickest to convert the rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The goal effectively ended Udinese’s comeback hopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maignan Shines as Milan Secure a Clean Sheet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although Milan established a comfortable advantage, Udinese continued searching for a breakthrough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keinan Davis tested Maignan, while Serie A debutant Giulio Vinciati narrowly missed the target after an encouraging forward run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the opposite end, Okoye produced an outstanding reflex save to deny Goncalo Ramos from close range, tipping his effort onto the crossbar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milan’s defensive organization ultimately proved decisive as they protected their two-goal lead until the final whistle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
