Christian Pulisic records one goal in eight World Cup appearances
Summary

Christian Pulisic's performance in World Cup history shows he has scored just one goal in eight matches across two tournaments. The USMNT faced a disappointing exit in the 2026 FIFA World Cup after losing 4-1 to Belgium, a match in which Pulisic suffered an injury and could not finish. This tournament marks another low point for the player, who has struggled to maintain his earlier form. Pulisic's only World Cup goal came during the 2022 World Cup group stage against Iran. His last notable international goal occurred months prior against Senegal in a friendly, breaking a drought that extended to late 2024. Pulisic, now 27, played with AC Milan during the past three seasons, scoring eight goals in 30 matches this season.
