Christian Pulisic will not play in Friday's World Cup qualifier against Mexico for the United States.

Coach Gregg Berhalter of the United States revealed on Thursday that he expects the 23-year-old forward to come off the bench in the encounter.

Pulisic sprained his left ankle against Honduras in a World Cup qualifying on Sept. 8, and he didn't play again until Nov. 2, when he came on for the final 17 minutes of Chelsea's Champions League match against Malmö. On Saturday, he played the final six minutes of Chelsea's Premier League match against Burnley.
