There were many matches to choose from this weekend, but in our heart of hearts there can be only one for Pulisic & Stripes FC. That’s right. The Pulisliga kicks off this weekend as Wolfsburg host Borussia Dortmund. If not for John Brooks’ injury that will keep him out for up to three months, this could’ve been a match-up of two of the highest profile Americans in the league. Alas, we’ll settle for obsessing over Christian Pulisic’s season debut.
The 18-year-old human savior of American soccer has had a very good preseason leading up to what should be an extremely important season.
