In a super exciting match against Australia, Haji Wright was definitely the best player for the U.S. Men’s National Team. When they were losing Wright scored two really important goals that changed everything and got them the win they needed so bad. He’s been doing really good at Coventry City too scoring 11 goals in just 13 games this season. The way he played against Australia shows how much better he’s getting when he plays for his country.

Christian Pulisic’s Injury Problems
While everyone was happy about winning, they were also real worried about Christian Pulisic getting hurt. The AC Milan player had to leave before halftime cause his hamstring was hurting which could be bad for both his club and when he plays for America. Pulisic has been doing really good stuff for AC Milan showing everyone how good he is at playing. If he can’t play it could be real tough for the team especially since AC Milan really wants to get into the Champions League.
