How the hell is he an international captain? Tyler Roberts was the one that played on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilChameleon Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Brutal to come out of that with only 1 point after the great first half we had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would still back US to finish 2nd but they really flagged after an hour and obviously don't have the depth to change things from the bench. Huge potential for 2026 if they get a decent manager in at some point in next four years. Edited November 21, 2022 by VillaChris 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wales were awful first half. First touches were awful, passes were awful, and they seemed content to let the USA come to them. USA were better than I was expecting...good fullback play, Pulisic the best player on the pitch, Weah making daddy proud. But they didn't finish Wales off while they had the upper hand. Wales were forced to play after the goal and found their touch. Dumb, dumb penalty by the Americans...why you try a tackle like that in the box on a striker with his back to goal is beyond me.

Putting crosses in to Pulisic sums up our problems in attack. We played really well defensively and had enough possession to score a second but didn't actually bother Hennessey all that much. Started running out of gas after 60 minutes and you could smell the equalizer coming. McKennie looked terrible. Really dumb from Ream for the penalty. Hopefully snatch a point v ENG and best Iran.

Zhan_Zhuang Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Yeah the Welsh deserved something from the game. Thought England were good against a decent Iran team, very professional. Bellingham was immense, just ran the show. Nice to see two Brummies on the scoresheet for England. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Wales have the better deal from that IMO . . . if they fancy beating Iran (and they should), and fancy England to beat USA (which is probably a better than 50/50 shot, though you wouldn't be surprised if England slip up) then Wales would go into the last game against an England who have already qualified and might be resting players, with Wales knowing they would only need a draw to get through. TL/DR - better to play Iran sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough I was at a gig last night by a Welsh folk band (Calan - they're actually bloody good) and their singer was hoping that England-Wales end up in a situation where they both only needed a draw to go through. Yeah, right, I said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes with Bellingham in the team we have improved from the euros and saka immense too. Let's see how we do against USA.
