AC Milan striker Christian Pulisic is among five players rested from the United States national team ahead of Tuesday's friendly in Mexico, US Soccer said on Sunday. Pulisic set up the first American goal in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Panama at Austin, Texas, that marked a triumphant debut for new US coach Mauricio Pochettino of Argentina. On Sunday, Pulisic was released back to AC Milan, the 26-year-old winger having played a large number of minutes over the past month for his Italian club and the US side.
