Christian Pulisic makes World Cup point after Chelsea suffer Ben Chilwell injury blow

Christian Pulisic has revealed his disappointment for his Chelsea colleague Ben Chilwell after the left-back suffered a hamstring injury during Champions League action on Wednesday night.

Chilwell will miss a minimum of three weeks and likely more time after the injury suffered in the second half of Chelsea's win against Dinamo Zagreb in midweek. He left the stadium on crutches and now appears to be a serious doubt for the World Cup which is now just a couple of weeks away.

Pulisic and Chilwell are teammates for their club, but were set to do battle on the pitch in Qatar, with the USA facing England in what is likely to be a huge World Cup Group B clash on November 25th. However, this injury now means that only Pulisic is likely to make it to the tournament.
