American Players Abroad

A Christian Pulisic goal and assist vs Bologna secured AC Milan a 3-1 comeback victory at San Siro on Friday as the American continued his best club season of his career.

Friday’s Serie A matchup saw ninth-placed Milan struggle as has been the case for most of the season, however a late push inspired by Pulisic led the Rossoneri to three points.

With Milan trailing 1-0 late in the second half, Pulisic assisted his Mexican teammate Santiago Giménez to get Milan level.

He's Captain America for a reason, baby.

Christian Pulisic has confirmed his strong run of form for AC Milan, scoring his 10th Serie A goal of the season in a composed 2-0 away victory over Venezia.

The American winger opened the scoring just five minutes into the match, finishing coolly into the bottom corner after a clever assist from Youssouf Fofana inside the box.

Christian Pulisic has made 75 appearances in continental competitions (Champions League and Europa League) during his career and has competed in them during all 10 of his professional seasons. That streak is at risk of ending next season but there’s still hope.

Even during Pulisic’s first senior year with Borussia Dortmund in 2015-16 he made three appearances in the Europa League. Since then he’s been continuously appearing on the biggest stages in Europe.

United States men’s national team and Celtic center back Cameron Carter-Vickers put on a fantastic audition for playing as a forward on Saturday with a sensational long distance goal vs. Kilmarnock.

In the 21st minute the American defender unleashed a fierce strike from distance that nobody saw coming. Carter-Vickers found himself in a pocket of space and decided to try a shot. And what a shot it was.

CBS Sports analyst and former American soccer player, Mike Grella, has called out Christian Pulisic for not being more 'selfish' when it came to taking AC Milan's penalty kick during their tough 2-1 loss to Napoli on Sunday.

The match, which saw the Rossoneri drop to ninth in Serie A, featured a controversial moment when Pulisic (perhaps the club's most efficient penalty taker) handed the ball to Santiago Gimenez, who ultimately missed the spot kick.

A pair of embarrassing losses... thankfully in front of no one.

The U.S. men's national team faced an off-the-pitch challenge during their Concacaf Nations League Final Four matches held at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California. Despite being one of the premier events on the region’s soccer calendar, the USMNT’s matches (and losses) against Panama and Canada were played in front of sparse crowds, with only a few thousand in attendance for both games.

A fantastic Korbin Albert goal vs Guingamp early in the second half of PSG’s 6-2 league victory on Friday was another highlight reel moment for the American midfielder.

Albert did brilliantly to sit down a defender before unleashing a powerful shot with the goalkeeper having no chance.

A fantastic Christian Pulisic goal vs Como brought AC Milan level during their 2-1 comeback victory in Serie A on Saturday at San Siro.

The Rossoneri got off to another poor start and trailed at the half. The home fans loudly booed their squad off the pitch after the halftime whistle, but a second half comeback was in the cards.

Two Christian Pulisic goals vs Lecce on Saturday ended the American’s month-long goal drought and gave AC Milan three points they desperately needed.

Milan looked on course for a fourth consecutive Serie A defeat when the hosts took a two-goal lead at the hour mark. It looked like Milan manager Sergio Conceicao was going to be coaching his final 30 minutes for the Italian giants, but then his side did the unthinkable.

United States men’s national team midfielder Johnny Cardoso played a key role in Real Betis’ 2-1 upset victory against Real Madrid on Saturday. The American headed in an equalizer from close range in the first half.

With Madrid leading 1-0 early in the first half, Johnny chose perhaps the best time to score his first LaLiga goal of the season. In the 34th minute a Betis corner was swung into the box and a wide-open Johnny was there to smash in the equalizer.
