Americans Abroad Wednesday Rewind: Christian Pulisic, Aron Johannsson and more

Christian Pulisic was dangerous throughout Wednesday’s clash with Bayern Munich, but it wasn’t enough for Borussia Dortmund to overcome Germany’s top team.

A pair of first half goals lifted Bayern to a 2-1 win over Dortmund in Wednesday’s DFB-Pokal third round match. Pulisic was active throughout, generally playing atop the field as Dortmund hoped for counterattacking chances. His best moment came on a well-placed cross that was scuffed by winger Andriy Yarmolenko.

Elsewhere in Germany, Aron Johannsson made a rare appearance for Werder Bremen, coming off the bench as a substitute in a 3-2 win over Freiburg. Caleb Stanko went a full 90 in the same match in what ended as a losing effort.

In England, Emerson Hyndman watched from the bench as Bournemouth saw a potential upset of Chelsea thwarted by an Alvaro Morata stoppage time winner.
