Watch: Christian Pulisic Cross Turns Into Ridiculous Goal vs. Stuttgart
Christian Pulisic probably didn't mean to do this, but it counts just the same.
U.S. men's national team star Christian Pulisic scored a pretty ridiculous goal Sunday–possibly unintentionally.
In the first half of Borussia Dortmund's game against Stuttgart, Pulisic attempted to dig out a cross into the box, racing down the right channel with his head down before sending in a ball toward the far post. It wound up hitting the top left corner of the goal instead, and it gave Dortmund a 1–0 lead.
This marked Pulisic's fourth goal of the season.
Dortmund was looking to rebound after a 6–0 loss to Bayern Munich in Der Klassiker, and Pulisic's goal helped send the club on its way to a 3-0 win. Coupled with Schalke's loss at Hamburg, Dortmund's win brought the club within a point of second place in the Bundesliga.
