Twitter/@SportsCenter

Christian Pulisic found the back of the net off a Darlington Nagbe pass as the United States defeated Bolivia 4-0 at Children's Mercy Park in a friendly fixture.

Pulisic's goal came after Nagbe's smart give-and-go sequence with Jermaine Jones opened up space on the right-hand side of the box. The 17-year-old attacking winger then tucked his shot into the near side of the post.

The Borussia Dortmund starlet came on in the second half and scored the fourth goal. LA Galaxy forward Gyasi Zardes scored a brace and Union Berlin striker Bobby Wood added a goal of his own in the first half.

Midfielder Alejandro Bedoya also recorded a pair of assists, as the United States continued to prepare for Group A action in the upcoming Copa America Centenario.
