AC Milan have taken a 2-0 lead over Inter in the Derby della Madonnina, with Christian Pulisic and Adrien Rabiot both on the scoresheet inside the opening ten minutes of the Serie A matchday-10 fixture.

Pulisic struck first in the fourth minute, finishing a cross from Moreira after the winger had created an overload down the right flank. The goal came just a day after Milan officially confirmed that Pulisic had signed a contract extension until June 2031.

Rabiot then doubled Milan's lead in the tenth minute with what L'Équipe described as a superb strike, his fifth Serie A goal of the 2026/27 season. The French midfielder has been in fine form this campaign, registering four goals and three assists in seven appearances with an average rating of 7.43, according to FootVal data.

Milan entered the match fifth in Serie A with 18 points, while Inter led the table with 25 points going into the fixture.
