Pulisic wins record-breaking US award

21 Dec 2021


Christian Pulisic has become the youngest person ever to be named US
Soccer Male Player of the Year three times.

The forward had already received the award, which is presented by the US
football federation to the best player from that nation, in 2017 and 2019,
the year he joined Chelsea, as well as the Young Male Player of the Year
award in 2016.


Our number 21 wasn't able to be there to collect the honour in person, as
his win was announced at the weekend's 1-0 friendly win for the USA over
Bosnia & Herzegovina in California, a match played almost exclusively with
home-based players for both sides as it fell outside a designated FIFA
window.


Pulisic becomes the fourth person to be named US Soccer Male Player of the
Year on three occasions, following Clint Dempsey, Landon Donovan and Kasey
Keller, but at 23 years old is comfortably the youngest to do so. He is
also now just one behind former Everton man Donovan's record of four wins
in total.


It caps a memorable year for Pulisic with club and country. No American
had ever appeared in a Champions League final before he did so in Porto,
having scored the goal which initially gave us the lead over Real Madrid
in the first leg of the semis.


Of course, he went one better by helping us to beat Manchester City 1-0
and becoming the first person from his nation ever to lift Europe's most
prestigious club trophy.


It was a similar story on the international stage, where Pulisic captained
his country four times in 2021, including in the final of the inaugural
CONCACAF Nations League competition on home soil in Colorado.

Pulisic netted the winning goal in that final from the penalty spot in
extra time to give the USA a 3-2 victory over neighbours and fierce rivals
Mexico, claiming another trophy less than two weeks after winning the
Champions League with Chelsea.
