Pulisic started and played the full 90 minutes in Dortmund’s 6-0 thrashing of Polish champions Legia Warsaw. Pulisic was directly involved in Dortmund’s fifth goal of the night, registering an assist to Gonzalo Castro. 

The assist is almost a mirror image of the one Pulisic provided to Jozy Altidore during the international break with the USMNT.

Pulisic was extremely dangerous throughout, setting up teammates and taking on Warsaw defenders.

Pulisic is celebrating his 18th birthday on Sunday, meaning that he's got one final year to finally get his s*** together and grow out of this adolescent phase of his. Sheesh.
