Watch Christian Pulisic end his cold streak with a nice goal
Christian Pulisic entered Saturday with no goals in 12 matches and starting on the bench for Borussia Dortmund, so breaking his cold streak seemed unlikely. But an injury to Marco Reus got him on the field in the first half and he found the back of the net in the second.
That's Pulisic starting the attack in the midfield by holding off a defender and flicking the ball past two defenders, then making the late run into the box to cap it with a finish that was much more difficult than he made it look.
It's easy to forget that Pulisic is still just 18 years old so a cold spell is no reason for alarm. He's still been a regular off the bench for BVB, which is pretty exceptional for a teenager, and his future is as bright as ever. But getting back on the scoresheet is nice, and Pulisic did it with some awfully tidy work to boot, first in the midfield and then in the box.
