We do not undertake to say who deserved victory more – the USA or Wales. In the first half, the Americans played more interestingly, and after a beautiful combination they scored the goal. The goal was scored by Timothy Weah, the son of Liberian President George Weah.
In the second 45 minutes, the opponents developed noticeable pressure. The penalty appears to be certain. The American player in his own penalty area, after all, did not play the ball, but at the feet of the “star” of Wales Bale. He scored the penalty kick.
The situation in this group is interesting. There is an obvious leader in the game – England. Wales and America are not up to her level. Although in one particular fight anything unpredictable can happen.
The Welsh and Americans still have to play with England, as well as with the obvious outsider – Iran. They have now scored one tournament point each, breaking the tie.
And the battle on the green Qatari lawn for second position will be serious. Let’s assume that the difference between goals scored and goals conceded will ultimately decide a lot. If the points scored are equal, of course. Who will concede less against England (Wales or the USA), and who will score more against Iran…
Let’s see how it all ends. It will be partly a pity if the Americans, the youngest team at the current World Cup, are eliminated. Just for their excitement, enthusiasm, and, by the way, good level of football, they deserve more than relegation from the tournament.
…I wonder if there are complete idiots on the FIFA refereeing committee? Why did they order the judges to add an unlimited amount of time?! 14 minutes, 10, now for the match Wales – USA – 9. There was no compelling reason to do this. The insanity is getting stronger!
