Christian Pulisic got the U.S. men's national soccer team on the board first in their opening Copa América match against Bolivia on Sunday night.
Team USA was looking to make a quick statement to start their Copa América match against Bolivia, and it came off the foot of Christian Pulisic. The U.S. men's national team got off to a hot start in their group stage play as Pulisic found the back of the net with just over two minutes into their opening match on Sunday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The U.S.
Weah dropped a pass to Pulisic, and instead of a cross, the AC Milan midfielder took a strike toward the net with some right-to-left spin on the ball. The shot was the perfect height to get over Bolivia’s goalkeeper, who got a fingertip on the ball but couldn’t alter the shot enough for the save. The ball hit the crossbar and dropped right into the side of the net, creating a quick 1-0 lead for the United States. Pulisic turned around and found his teammates at the U.S. bench as AT&T Stadium went into a frenzy. It was Pulisic’s 30th international goal of his career, and he would add his 16th assist on Folarin Balogun’s late first-half goal to make it 2-0. The U.S. is looking to assert its dominance in Group C, which includes Panama and Uruguay.
