Thierry Henry was full of praise for U.S. men’s national team’s young gem Cavan Sullivan, singling out the same quality which so enamored the teenager to Mauricio Pochettino.
Sullivan had an international break to savor. The Philadelphia Union forward made his senior debut, turned 17 and became the youngest scorer in the history of the program this fall. Pochettino doesn’t tend to single out individuals but made an exception to hail the grit, rather than the glitz, Sullivan had demonstrated. Henry was similarly impressed.
