Christian Pulisic, a key player for the United States, missed AC Milan’s match against Atalanta due to a lower back injury, adding to his recent struggles with form and a lengthy goal drought. Pulisic experienced discomfort during training on Friday, and it was deemed too severe for him to participate in Sunday’s game. He is expected to undergo medical tests and is uncertain for Milan’s upcoming match against Genoa, though he might return for the season finale against Cagliari. Pulisic has not scored in 17 league matches since December 28 and has also been scoreless in eight games for the U.S. Milan’s 3-2 loss to Atalanta jeopardizes their Champions League qualification, as they are tied with Roma and only slightly ahead of Como. Despite his club challenges, Pulisic is not expected to miss the World Cup, with the U.S. scheduled to play friendlies and group stage matches in the coming months.
