Should the USMNT be concerned about Pulisic's goal drought?

"Pulisic started up front as a center-forward and received more passes than any other U.S. attacker in the first half, attempting seven ground duels, the most on the team."

"It was Pulisic's eighth consecutive national team match without a goal, the longest drought of his career, and by the time he gets another opportunity, at least 18 months will have gone by since his last U.S. goal."

"We were able to create chances, which if I finish chances, which I know I'm going to, then things are going to be a bit different,"

"The U.S. attempted eight shots to Portugal's three and generated 0.45 xG to Portugal's 0.26, having seen more touches in the box."

He received a yellow card and was substituted at halftime. The U.S. created chances but could not convert, overshadowed by Portugal's goal following a turnover. The U.S. had more shots and touches in the box but ultimately lost 2-0.
