MIAMI (The Thursday Times) — Christian Pulisic ne 101 second mein do goal kiye aur America ne Saturday ki raat Concacaf Nations League ke quarter-final ke pehle leg mein Haiti ko 6-0 se shikast de di. Yeh Mauricio Pochettino ki bataur qaumi team coach aakhri se ek pehle wala match tha.
Auston Trusty ne daswein minute mein Sebastian Berhalter ki free kick par pichhle post ke qareeb neechi volley se goal kar ke team ko bartari dilai. Nawjawan striker Julian Hall ne 52wein minute mein Antonee Robinson ke cross par goal kar ke score 2-0 kiya, jo paanch matchon mein unka chautha goal tha.

Haiti ko laga ke Lenny Joseph ne 70wein minute mein khali net mein gend daal kar aik goal wapas kar diya hai, magar video review ke baad isay offside qarar de kar mustarad kar diya gaya. America ne 71 feesad gend par qabza rakha, 10 shots hadaf par lagaye, aur goalkeeper Diego Kochen ki jaali mehfooz rahi.
Pulisic scoring list mein upar
World Cup ke baad taang ki chot se wapsi par America ke liye apna pehla match khelte hue Pulisic ke international goal 35 ho gaye aur woh Eric Wynalda ko peechhe chhor kar team ki tareekh ki fehrist mein chauthe number par aa gaye. Pochettino ke baare mein, jin ki Manchester United rawangi ki tasdeeq Jumma ko hui, unhon ne kaha: “Unhon ne team mein bohat josh paida kiya. Mera khayal hai woh isay peechhe chhor kar jayen ge.”
Pochettino ne kaha ke qaumi team ka “shandar mustaqbil” hai aur khilariyon ki taareef ki ke unhon ne un ki rawangi ki khabar ko pukhtagi se sambhala. Trusty ne, jo guzishta maah apne walid ke intiqal ke baad pehli baar khel rahe thay, apna goal un ke naam kiya.
Haiti tashaddud ki wajah se apne mulk mein nahin khel sakta, is liye match junubi Florida mein khela gaya, jahan Haiti nazad baashindon ki badi tadaad aabad hai, aur shaiqeen ki aksariyat mehman team ke saath thi. Wapsi ka leg Mangal ko Cincinnati mein ho ga, jab Pochettino aakhri baar zimmedari sambhalen ge. Majmooi score par jeetne wali team March mein Nations League ke finals mein pohnche gi, jab ke under-23 coach Steve Cherundolo December ke tarbiyati camp mein team ki qiyadat karen ge.
