St. Vincent & Grenadines vs. USA, 2018 World Cup Qualifying: Final score 0-6, Pulisic and Kljestan shine in rout

While the first half ended with a three goal lead for the United States, the most notable play came after the introductions of Christian Pulisic and Sacha Kljestan in the 66th minute.

Jurgen Klinsmann, in spite of what appeared to be a fast paced and sloppy first half, headed into the locker room at halftime with his squad holding a commanding 3-0 lead. His happiness with that half was likely eclipsed by the way his tactical decisions played out in the latter portion of the second 45 minutes.

Christian Pulisic, seen by many pundits as the future cornerstone of the United States Men's National Team, and Sacha Kljestan, formerly a man without a country with Klinsmann at the helm, combined to double their team's scoreline in about 30 minutes of play.
