USA Player Ratings vs. Senegal: Pulisic, Balogun Stand Out In Win

It’s clear who the standout players were on Sunday, when the USA beat Senegal 3-2. Christian Pulisic had an assist before ending his six-month scoring drought with a great finish.
Here’s how I rate the key players from the Americans’ first World Cup tune-up against Senegal.
Christian Pulisic, Left Winger
Rating · 9
Man of the match. Pulisic looked dangerous every time he touched the ball. He got the Americans on the board with a great assist for Dest before taking his goal really well by going around the goalkeeper.
Folarin Balogun, Striker
Balogun was the USA’s second-best player on the field after Pulisic. He looked a constant threat in the box and got his goal to reward his hard work. For me, he’s the Americans’ clear starting striker at the World Cup.
