Christian Pulisic might just be the most scrutinized U.S. soccer player of all time. Having moved to Borussia Dortmund at age 16, his career has been well documented and closely followed by American fans eager for a soccer savior. 

But how well do you actually know the 21-year-old Chelsea winger? Here are 10 Christian Pulisic facts you might not know.

10 Christian Pulisic Facts You Probably Didn’t Know

1. His middle name is Mate

Pulisic’s middle name comes from his grandfather, Mate Pulišić, who was born in Croatia.

When Christian Pulisic scores or DeAndre Yedlin showcases his pace on a recovery run, the highlights are available for consumption across the United States almost instantaneously. 15 years ago, that was certainly not the case.

This was a time without Twitter, YouTube and Reddit — a time when you had to visit yanks-abroad.com for news while scrounging up money to pay for Fox Soccer Channel because your parents sure as shit weren’t expensing it. 

One of the most highly anticipated soccer babies in U.S. history is almost here. Alex Morgan, who has won two Women’s World Cups and an Olympic gold medal, will soon give birth to a baby with her husband, Servando Carrasco, a former LA Galaxy midfielder. So y’all want to see some Alex Morgan pregnancy photos?

Alex Morgan is having a baby. 

The global women’s soccer icon posted a baby announcement on social media on Oct. 23, confirming the two-time Women’s World Cup winner is pregnant and expecting to give birth in April. Morgan is married to former LA Galaxy midfielder Servando Carrasco. 

According to the announcement post, the Carrascos are expecting a baby girl. This is the couple’s first child. 

It’s crazy to think it has been two years now since MLS was graced with the first taste of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. March 31, 2018, was a day the LA Galaxy and the league may never forget with a classic El Trafico and the beginning of Ibrahimović’s short reign in MLS.

What are two things that you can’t live without? If you said footballers and your pet then we are on the same page.

There is no better content than cute animals and some of your favorite ballers. The footballers with animals Twitter account (@ftbllrswanimals) is by far my favorite account to scroll through because I know it will always put a smile on my face. So I dare you to go through these posts without smiling or saying “awwww” because I bet you can't. 

Being a referee at any level of sport isn’t always a great time. The majority of the time no one likes you and every call you make will have someone disagreeing with you. For Premier League referee Anthony Taylor this is nothing new. But this week, Taylor made a call that no one will dispute.

Amid all of the chaos and cancelations, soccer players around world have kept themselves entertained with the so-called “Stay At Home Challenge.” Lionel Messi showed his skills at juggling toilet paper, but there’s a new front-runner in town. In the lead now for the best stay at home challenge video is the Howard women’s soccer team.

The 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup quarterfinal aired again on March 28 so we could relive the excitement of the USWNT’s run. Becky Sauerbrunn joined in on @FoxSoccer to answer questions on Twitter, and she did not hold anything back about her teammates. Here are some of my faves:
