Christian Pulisic Stays Hot, Scores Again for Chelsea vs. Crystal Palace

Christian Pulisic's run of fantastic form continues.

The U.S. international scored for a third time since the Premier League's restart, burning Crystal Palace for Chelsea's second goal in Tuesday's match at Selhurst Park.

Pulisic, who also scored in November against Crystal Palace, tallied his ninth goal of the season in all competitions in fine fashion. Stationed on the left side, he went at his defender, who perhaps expected him to cut centrally. He instead stayed wide, firing a left-footed shot into the upper left-hand corner to double Chelsea's advantage.

It was made even more important considering Wilfried Zaha pulled one back for Palace on a sensational strike from long range.
