U.S. forward Christian Pulisic practices separately as he recovers from a calf injury that limited him during the Americans’ World Cup opener. Multiple reports say the AC Milan attacker works individually during Monday’s session and then goes to the gym, while his teammates train together at the U.S. team’s base in Irvine, California. Pulisic’s calf issue restricts him to partial participation; he plays only one half in the team’s opening match and leaves during the contest as a precaution. In that game, the United States defeats Paraguay 4-1. The injury stems from a kick to his calf during training ahead of the opener, leading to additional caution from the medical staff. The reports describe his current workload as rehabilitation and individual training rather than full team participation. The U.S. continues preparing for its next matches while monitoring Pulisic’s recovery progress.
