Why is it being implied that young Pulisic won't play Saturday?

Rumor has it he became and uncle today, thats why

I can’t see him NOT playing unless it’s something that requires surgery

When a player doesn't even care about the massive and much needed goal they just scored due to pain, the injury is likely pretty intense. His face looked like he was in severe pain. Maybe he'll be good to go by then, but I doubt he'd react that way and not play in the second half if it was just a minor thing.

Could be broken ribs. Could just be precautionary

I worried he cracked a rib right away

I don't think he got hit in the ribs. That knee went straight into his junk.

I worry he lost a testicle. I mean i doubt he lost one, but there is something that happens to them that can be extremely painful, somethign about them getting twisted up, forgot the term for it.

We've all been hit in the nuts before. Give it a few minutes and the pain will go away, but when the pain lasts that long and you can't continue to play in the biggest game of your life, you got some major issues.

Maybe he got hit in the kidney or some other organ down there.

Teddy is a testicular torsion you’re thinking of. Hopefully it’s not that bc he’s not playing if it is!
