With the first friendly of the summer looming, Mauricio Pochettino assured U.S. soccer fans that superstar attacker Christian Pulisic will end his 19-game goalscoring drought while wearing the Stars and Stripes.
“He’s going to score in the World Cup,” the Argentine manager said Thursday, as the USMNT trained in Atlanta before facing Senegal in the first of two pre-World Cup friendlies in Charlotte on Sunday. “I really trust in that... He’s had a very good attitude, very good commitment. He’s trying so hard to get to his best level. I think he will achieve it.”
