That goal set Dortmund on course for a resounding 3-0 victory and Pulisic shared his excitement after: "I'm absolutely delighted, it's a very good feeling to score your first competitive goal. Simply outstanding."
It should be noted that Dortmund made wholesale changes after their shock collapse to Liverpool in the Europa League. It came before a huge match before Hertha BSC in the Pokal semi-finals, a match that Pulisic astutely says he does not expect to start.
Hertha are hurting and winless in three, alhough John Anthony Brooks returned for Saturday's 2-1 loss to Hoffenheim. Now Brooks has a big week to prove himself to Europe's elite, facing Dortmund on Wednesday and Bayern Munich on Saturday. IMOTGP predicts to wins for the defender!
Across the pond, Seattle's Jordan Morris showed why he is considered the savior of MLS as he scored his first goal. The Sounders say the party is just getting started. There were other MLS matches as well that were played and some goals were scored!
In England, the title race has heated up with Leicester City's lead over Tottenham cut to five points. It's not as close as the Spanish race which has the top three teams separated by one point but since it's England, we'll say this race is the greatest story in sports.
One of the key players for the Foxes is former Schalke man Christian Fuchs, known for his hilarious YouTube videos. Fuchs recently gave an interview to the Guardian and let this interesting tidbit be known: his family lives in New York and he will move to the States to play. This means the 30-year-old should be eligible to join MLS for the 2021 season when he reaches the minimum age requirement!
And one more item: Union Berlin hotshot Bobby Wood denies he is joining the Hamburg team destroyed by Dortmund. 'Woody' is third in the Zweiteliga with 17 goals.
