    "articleBody": "Christian Pulisic scored twice on Saturday as the US men’s national team thrashed Haiti 6-0 in Miami, and the second goal lifted him past Eric Wynalda into fourth place on the program’s all-time scoring list. The rout opened the two-legged Concacaf Nations League quarterfinal at Nu Stadium. It was also the first of Mauricio Pochettino’s final two games in charge before he leaves to take over at Manchester United. Pulisic climbs the record book Pulisic started the day on 33 international goals, one behind Wynalda. He won a penalty in the 60th minute after an 18-year-old Julian Hall backheel put him through, waited out some delay from Haiti, and converted it to tie Wynalda on 34. Minutes later he hammered a left-footed shot past goalkeeper Alex Pierre for 35. The gap between the two men is in the caps. Wynalda scored his 34 goals across 106 appearances between 1990 and 2000. Pulisic has 35 in 91, which works out to roughly 0.38 goals a game against Wynalda’s 0.32. The next name on the list is Jozy Altidore with 42, and above him sit Clint Dempsey and Landon Donovan, level on 57. Clint Dempsey: 57 goals Landon Donovan: 57 goals Jozy Altidore: 42 goals Christian Pulisic: 35 goals Eric Wynalda: 34 goals The two goals also matter for the player. After an uneven home World Cup in the summer, the AC Milan forward put both of his shots on target and was a constant presence in the Haiti box. Six different scorers, one shutout Celtic center back Auston Trusty broke the deadlock in the first half, poking in a Sebastian Berhalter free kick at the back post for his second goal for his country. The US had about 73 percent of the ball before halftime but led only 1-0. Hall, the New York Red Bulls teenager, doubled the lead on a fast break after Pulisic sent Antonee Robinson down the left. Weston McKennie headed in a Malik Tillman corner for the fifth, and substitute Folarin Balogun, who had one goal ruled out by a video review, finished a Tillman pass for the sixth. Tillman finished with two assists. At the other end, Miami-raised goalkeeper Diego Kochen kept a clean sheet about 20 minutes from where he grew up. “It’s an unbelievable experience, something I’ve been dreaming about since I was a kid, to play with these guys and represent the badge,” he said after the match. A send-off, not a goodbye yet We covered the coaching news itself when Mauricio Pochettino agreed to leave the US team for Manchester United. This game showed what he leaves behind: a squad mixing returning stars with teenagers like Hall and Kochen. Balogun summed up the mood in the locker room. “Pochettino is an amazing manager and he’s added a lot to us with the national team. It’s sad to see a top coach leave,” he said. For more international goal-chasing, see how John McGinn moved within six goals of Scotland’s scoring record this week. A six-goal cushion all but settles the tie. The second leg is Tuesday, November 17, at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio, Pochettino’s last match before he starts at Manchester United on November 18.
