Christian Pulisic has given an update on a small injury he suffered, forcing him off at half-time during the United States' World Cup clash against Paraguay.
The US beat the South Americans in their opening game of the competition 4-1, dominating proceedings throughout.
The home nation's man, Pulisic, had to be subbed off for Sebastian Berhalter at half-time due to a minor injury on his left calf.
Providing an update to his knock after the game, the winger said: "I just got a bit of a kick in the first half, so I'm really hoping that it's nothing.
"Taking a little bit of precaution today, but I'm hoping I'll be fine the next few days.
"I've had similar things before, staying positive. I don't think it's anything."
The former Chelsea forward was involved in an own goal that gave the US the lead and assisted his side's second goal.
The 27-year-old has been a key figure with the US for a decade, scoring at the last World Cup and registering 31 goals overall for his national team.
Head coach Mauricio Pochettino explained Pulisic "started to feel tight and we didn't want to take any risks".
The US put on an incredible performance in their opening game, with Paraguay no match for the co-hosts.
After just eight minutes, the US had their first goal of the tournament after a dangerous ball flashed across the box before an unfortunate touch from defender Damian Bobadilla diverted it into his own net.
Folarin Balogun slotted home to make it 2-0 after Pulisic pulled the ball back for the Monaco striker to fire home.
The former Arsenal man got his second of the game, cutting inside onto his left foot before curling a stunning effort into the top corner.
Paraguay pulled one back in the second half after former Newcastle forward Miguel Almiron played it to Julio Enciso, who put Mauricio in behind, and he made no mistake with the finish.
The US had their fourth just before full-time, with Giovanni Reyna picking up the ball on the edge of the box before unleashing a wicked effort with the outside of his right boot.
An incredibly convincing display by the US, which sent a message to the rest of the competition.
Speaking afterwards, Pochettino said: "So, so proud. Players and staff deserved big credit for this performance.
"The most important is the performance and the feeling. We know it is only the start, and it is nothing. It is only one game. Now we need to be intelligent to keep [going] in that direction.
"But we are so happy because the first game is always so difficult, hosting the World Cup, the expectation, but we managed the expectation and pressure.
"The first 45 minutes were amazing, difficult to find a team to play like this. So happy and so proud."
