Americans Abroad: Christian Pulisic wins penalty as Dortmund finishes third

The teenager was able to win a spot kick late that earned his side a guaranteed place in the Champions League group stage next season

As Borussia Dortmund heads toward the end of the season, it looks as if Christian Pulisic has settled into his role as an impact substitute off the bench. He did not start either of Dortmund’s last three Bundesliga contents, though he certainly made his presence felt in his side’s 4-3 comeback win over Werder Bremen.

Pulisic drew a late penalty, which Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang finished, to give Dortmund three points. The victory ensured third place for the club, and a guaranteed spot in the Champions League group stages for next season.
