Pulisic left Tuesday's final group stage match against Iran at halftime after bruising his pelvic bone in a collision with the goalkeeper while scoring in the 38th minute. The Americans won 1-0 to advance.
"It looks pretty good, but we'll have to see him today on the pitch to get confirmation of that," US coach Gregg Berhalter said before Friday's training session.
Pulisic, a 24-year-old winger, said on Thursday he was feeling better.

Forward Josh Sargent left the Iran match in the second half after hurting his right ankle.
"With Christian, we're hopeful, with him a little less so," Berhalter said.
