US coach Mauricio Pochettino is confident Christian Pulisic will make an impact at the 2026 World Cup, stating the Milan forward 'is going to score.' The coach emphasized seeing 'the real American player right now' despite Pulisic opting out of last summer's Concacaf Gold Cup to prioritize rest for the upcoming tournament.
Pulisic and Pochettino had exchanged words through podcasts in the lead-up to the Gold Cup, which saw the US team fall in the final against Mexico. The star's decision to rest was aimed at avoiding burnout for what both consider a crucial World Cup summer. ipl-cricket.in
