Wales have not got going at all.

USA hasn't allowed them too. They look fitter, more athletic and certainly more committed.

It's not hot it's only 23c.

More mobile, they may pay for it later, but with 5 subs they may keep it up. Wales have been static in 2/3rds of the pitch.

Impressed with Team USA so far ... looks like USA vs England might be a pretty good game ! 

Nice assist there, where's Tim?

I wouldn't want to run around in 23c.

 

 

Oh who am I kidding, I don't want to run around in any temperature.

 

Carry on.

Pulisic probably MOTM so far.

Great assist and Weah what an intro to the World Cup.

Battle of the ponytails.

Give it 15 minutes then USA can bring on Freddie Adu. 

Who is this commentator on ITV. Dreadful

Tydlesley.

 

That was one of those iconic player moments, Bale didn't do much throughout the match but won the penalty and scored from it, sign of a great player that can make so much happen with so little. Got a feeling that Wales will think that they could have won this but a draw seems fair.

USA getting hammered next game. 

Moore for Wales must have been MOTM in the 2nd.

Ampadu had to wonder with that last challenge and his injury record whether he would last the match, alas he did not.

So Wales have a chance once again.

Nice to see Pulisic scoring 9 goals and winning the World Series championship cup. 

Thought we were disappointing that second half. Totally controlled yet one lapse in concentration and we gift Wales a penalty when it was looking like they’d never score at all. 
 

Frustrating. Can’t lose to England now.

They needed that point. I think they will beat Iran and lose to England by the odd goal or two and get 2nd place.

Disappointing that Wales could not get the deserved win. Guess they need to beat England now 

I thought Wales were crap, so I don't know what ITV were going on about saying it was a good 2nd half from them. They had a header after a scramble in the area and a penalty from a stupid tackle. I think USA will be disappointed they didn't kill it off in the first half.

Exactly. Genuinely felt Wales wouldn’t score unless we gifted them something stupid and lord and behold, it happened. 
 

Zimmerman and Ream are fantastic on the ball but poor defensively.

The dynamic did change in the second half, it really looked like Wales has a chance to get into the match and all it took was one ball managing to find its way to the box... I think it could also be the lack of experience of the USA team there but also it looked like Pulisic has only 1 gear, he just goes forward and never slows down the pace of the attack, he could have kept possession longer in the opposition half and wasted more time.

Wales deserved a draw just for all the time wasting the Americans were doing.
