Christian Pulisic is experiencing a career-high goal drought ahead of the World Cup, with pressure mounting on his performance for the U.S. team and AC Milan.

With the World Cup approaching, Christian Pulisic's goal slump has become a major talking point. Following a 2-0 loss to Portugal, his scoreless streak for the U.S. team has stretched to a career-high eight matches.
U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino moved Pulisic from wing to striker in a bid to increase his scoring opportunities. Despite increased touches and some near misses in recent games, Pulisic remains without a goal.
Despite these setbacks, both Pulisic and Pochettino are determined. Pulisic, who is a key player for the U.S., is hopeful that his form will return as the team prepares to co-host the World Cup starting in June.
