Tuesday was a remarkable day for U.S. Soccer abroad as six different Americans started for their respective club team in the UEFA Champions League.
Tuesday was a remarkable day for U.S. Soccer abroad as six different Americans started for their respective club team in the UEFA Champions League.
Christian Pulisic is in fine scoring form as the American has scored for club and country in the last eight days. This Pulisic goal vs Leicester during Chelsea’s 3-0 victory was his first Premier League goal since opening day in August.
Chelsea had a dominating performance against the Foxes with first-half goals from Antonio Rüdiger and N’Golo Kanté to give the Blues an early lead.
Thomas Tuchel decided to change things up front for his team in the 62nd minute with Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech coming on.
The U.S. has had its share of misfortune in Concacaf World Cup qualifying matches. For once, the nonsense that goes on during Concacaf games went the USMNT’s way.
The Christian Pulisic Barcelona rumors have been gaining steam with reports from Spanish media claiming that the American is on the LaLiga giants’ radar.
One Spanish newspaper, Sport, makes the claim that Barcelona is eyeing up three Chelsea players for potential loan moves. The three Blues in question are Pulisic, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Hakim Ziyech.
For as long as soccer players have had toned, athletic bodies hiding under their shirts, they’ve loved to take off their jerseys to celebrate scoring a goal. But when you really want to make a statement, you need something more than rock-hard abs under your shirt — you need one of these iconic goal celebration shirt messages.
United States' Christian Pulisic was on target in Friday's 2-0 win over Mexico, but it was the message scrawled on his T-shirt that made headlines as the winger responded to a pre-match jibe from their North American arch rivals with one of his own.
Second-half substitute Pulisic headed home a cross within five minutes of coming on, while Weston McKennie scored another as a young U.S. team moved to the top of the World Cup qualifying CONCACAF standings.
La derrota ante Estados Unidos en las eliminatorias 2022 dejó un intoxicante y amargo sabor de boca entre los aficionados de México. No solo porque es la tercera derrota consecutiva ante el USMNT, sino que también por todas las preguntas de identidad que deja flotando. Desde si es Gerardo Martino el hombre correcto para liderar al Tri hasta si la famosa distancia entre ambos seleccionados desapareció completamente. De todas, sin embargo, una de las más interesantes -bajo mi perspectiva- tiene que ver con la narrativa de la selección mexicana a la hora de enfrentar a su vecino del norte.
El 2021 será un año que los aficionados de México querrán sepultar en el centro de la Tierra y nunca volver a desenterrar. Sí, se ganaron varios partidos e incluso se consiguió una medalla de bronce en los Juegos Olímpicos. Sin embargo, a nivel adulto y ante Estados Unidos, el rival que importa, todo fue una pesadilla. Caída en la final de la Nations League, derrota en la final de la Copa Oro y ahora un tropezón enorme en las Eliminatorias rumbo a Catar 2022. Más encima con el peor resultado de todos: ¡Dos a cero!
Tres partidos consecutivos que no podrán olvidarse fácilmente.
The USMNT had an iconic 2-0 victory against Mexico Friday night with Christian Pulisic scoring the game’s opening goal. During Captain America’s celebration he revealed a message written on his undershirt that had fans asking: “What did Pulisic’s shirt say?”
Pulisic pulled out one of the most badass undershirt reveals since Mario Balotelli’s “Why always me?” shirt.
