US men’s national team head coach Mauricio Pochettino offered very little clarity on the status of US playmaker Christian Pulisic on Thursday, casting further doubt on his status ahead of the United States’ second’ group stage match against Australia on Friday afternoon.
“I think as you know he was training individually all week,” Pochettino told reporters at his pre-match press conference. “Like always, I think tonight or the day before the game we have a meeting with our medical area, we will assess the whole group, and tomorrow we will communicate if we agree on something tonight. He is evolving, he is much better from Friday, we’ll see.”
