Christian Pulisic is questionable for the USA's World Cup group fixture against Australia after sustaining a calf injury, according to USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino.
Pulisic has been a key attacking player for the USMNT at the tournament. The exact extent of the calf injury and his recovery timeline have not been disclosed, with a final decision on his availability expected closer to match day.
The potential absence of Pulisic would significantly weaken the USA's attacking options, removing one of their primary threats on the wing for Group C matches.
Loss of Pulisic's pace and dribbling ability could impact USA match result odds and goal scoring markets for their remaining group fixtures.
