Pulisic trains separately as USA monitor calf injury ahead of World Cup

Christian Pulisic worked apart from the main group at Monday's USA training session as he continues to recover from a calf injury picked up last week. Coach Mauricio Pochettino described him as 'good', but his availability for the tournament remains to be confirmed. Pulisic is the USA's most important attacking player, and any doubt over his fitness is a significant concern for a host nation with genuine knockout-stage ambitions.
