USA impresses hold England to draw, last 16 hopes alive

FIFA World Cup 2022: Fantastic USA inspires hold England to goalless draw, keeps last 16 hopes alive, Player Ratings..





The USA impressed massively and nearly top of the Group as Gregg Berhalter’s young side ends another goalless drew 0-0 in World Cup with Southgate side, as the Favourite England on the bank of elimination and were unlucky not to win their Group B game.



Previously, both teams have met three times and so on on Soccer world stage, Three Lions, England has yet to win a single match against the Younger American after a goalless draw 0-0 on Friday.



The U.S. famously won 1-0 in 1950 and played to a 1-1 tie in 2010, as coach Gareth-Southgate had previously reminded his team. They didn't appear to follow his advice, and Gregg Berhalter's young and spirited squad received no response.

In its first game in Qatar, England defeated Iran 6-2 to uphold its reputation as one of the tournament favourites. However, it may count itself fortunate not to have lost another game to the Americans when Christian-first-half Pulisic's goal and Weston McKinnie's eight-yard miss both struck the crossbar.

With one game remaining, England supporters arrived at the Al Bayt Stadium with hopes of celebrating a victory and advancement to the knockout stages.


The England draw sets up a match for the USA against Iran on Tuesday for a spot in the round of 16.

 Iran beat Wales 2-0 earlier and sits second in Group B with three points, one more than the Americans.
