Americans Abroad Midweek Preview: Pulisic, Gonzalez, Yedlin and more

Both the UEFA Champions League and CONCACAF Champions League return this week as several Americans look to guide their team in their continent’s premier competition.

In Europe, Christian Pulisic and Borussia Dortmund will need to overcome a deficit as they visit Monaco for the second leg of their Champions League quarterfinal. Following a 3-2 defeat on home turf, Dortmund face an uphill battle as they look to overcome their opening leg loss and the three away goals conceded that came with it.

CONCACAF Champions League action continues Tuesday with the first leg of the tournament’s final, pitting Omar Gonzalez’s Pachuca against Jose Torres and Tigres.
