2 Shares

Borussia Dortmund climbed back into the race for a runners-up spot in the German Bundesliga with a 4-0 demolition of Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday, and Christian Pulisic played a big part in the romp.

The U.S. men’s national team star’s picture-perfect assist in the 13th minute set up Jadon Sancho for Dortmund’s opener in the triumph. It was Pulisic’s sixth assist of the season across all competitions, which propelled Dortmund to a superb home win. Dortmund are in third place with 54 points, and are now two points behind Schalke for second place with three matches remaining.

U.S. Under-20 national team winger Jonathan Amon made his return from a knee injury on Sunday, playing for the first time since February for Danish side FC Nordsjaelland.

Romain Gall continued his strong run of form for Sundsvall in the Swedish Allsvenskan, scoring an equalizer in their 2-2 draw. Mix Diskerud started and played the full 90 minutes for Goteborg, but it wasn’t enough as they fell at AIK. Bill Hamid made his first league appearance for Midtjylland on Sunday, helping his side to a 3-3 road draw at Aalborg.

Elsewhere, Omar Gonzalez started for Pachuca in a scoreless draw at Queretaro on Saturday, while William Yarborough was between the posts for Club Leon’s draw vs. Club Tijuana. Shaq Moore and Mukwelle Akale each played for their respective clubs in the Spanish Tercera Division.
