Christian Pulisic is determined be fit for United States' massive game against Netherlands - news that may leave Virgil van Dijk fearing an early World Cup exit.
Pulisic suffered an injury scoring USA's winner in their 1-0 victory against Iran on Tuesday night. He was taken to hospital to assess his knock and USA have confirmed he's suffered a pelvic contusion to make him a doubt for Saturday's last-16 tie against the Dutch.
Pulisic's condition will be assessed on a "day-to-day" basis, but he thinks he'll recover in time. Moments after Gregg Berhalter's side defeated Iran, he posted a picture from his hospital bed and wrote: "So f***** proud of my guys! I'll be ready Saturday don't worry."
