Christian Pulisic’s calf injury is the biggest #USMNT story at the World Cup.
It’s also the latest chapter in the World Cup’s history of injury shenanigans (gasp!), because there are no reporting rules like other sports.
As @henrybushnell.bsky.social has said, this really isn’t surprising:
The World Cup doesn’t have injury reporting rules like American sports leagues do, so there’s a long tradition of misdirection. Pulisic’s status is the latest chapter.
