Manchester United's new boss puts on a show! Pochettino's USA score six goals before his Old Trafford move
Manchester United's incoming head coach Mauricio Pochettino is leaving the United States national team in spectacular fashion.
Details: On November 14, Pochettino's USA demolished Haiti 6-0 in the first leg of the CONCACAF Nations League quarter-finals. The Argentine is preparing to take charge of Manchester United, but he still has one final match with the American national team before moving to Old Trafford.
The Americans opened the scoring in the 10th minute through Auston Trusty, but the real demolition began after the break. Julian Hall doubled the advantage in the 52nd minute before Christian Pulisic struck twice in just 101 seconds.
The AC Milan winger converted a penalty in the 62nd minute and completed his brace just one minute later. Weston McKennie made it 5-0 in the 68th minute, while Folarin Balogun completed the rout in the 82nd.
Pochettino will lead the USA once more on November 17, when they face Haiti in the return leg in Cincinnati. After that, the 54-year-old Argentine will begin his new chapter at Manchester United, having already been officially announced as the club's next head coach.
It's worth noting that Pulisic's double took his international tally to 35 goals, moving him into fourth place on the United States national team's all-time scoring list. Meanwhile, 18-year-old Julian Hall has now scored four goals in his first five international appearances.
