USMNT maps four tactical routes if Pulisic misses Australia clash
TL;DR Summary
With Christian Pulisic possibly sidelined by a calf issue, US coach Mauricio Pochettino weighs several options for Australia: start Gio Reyna, bring Tim Weah back on the wing, rely on Brenden Aaronson or Malik Tillman for midfield balance, or shift personnel so McKennie, Balogun, and others can press while maintaining midfield steel. The goal is to protect Pulisic’s replacement while preserving attack and control in the first 48-team World Cup group phase.
