Christian Pulisic’s injury absence didn’t hurt the Americans one bit, as they found a way to advance to the Round of 32 with an easy 2-0 win over Australia in their Group D clash at the FIFA World Cup on Friday.
In the absence of the AC Milan star, midfielder Alex Freeman stood up. The 21-year old is the youngest player on USA’s roster and son of Super Bowl champion Antonio Freeman.
