Milan came back from a goal behind to register 2-1 against minnows Como.
Scorers: Da Cunha 33'; Pulisic 53', Reijnders 75'
Sent off: Dele Alli 90+1'
Como gave the home side a shock when they took the lead, dancing past a very static Milan backline before Lucas Da Cunha hit a shot from the edge of the box which trickled past Mike Maignan.
The Rossoneri rallied after half-time, as a curled pass into the box from Tijjani Reijnders was picked up by Christian Pulisic and finished from a tight angle from the USMNT man.
Reijnders then had a goal of his own as Milan turned things around when the Dutchman slotted home when he found himself one-on-one with goalkeeper Jean Butez.
On 81 minutes, Como brought on Dele Alli to make his debut after two years away from the game, and just ten minutes later, VAR changed his yellow card to red and he was sent off.
The win puts Milan up into seventh in the Serie A table and up next is a trip to high-flying Napoli after the International Break.
