Is this an elimination game?
It might as well be. It's really hard to advance from the group stage losing your first game. Not impossible but it does put a ton of pressure on you for the next 2 games.

It's notable two of the Russian trolls were posting anti-American stuff at 3-5 a.m. EST, posting first thing in the morning in Eastern Europe, no doubt. Too bad your team couldn't qualify even if they weren't banned for doping and their ruthless but losing invasion and destruction of Ukraine, Comrades!
I might be an American fan but watching and listening to the Welsh fans and players singing their anthem was awesome.

Prediction - USA 0 : 2 Wales
Nah I feel pretty good about our chances here

The team once lost to Trinidad and Tobago, a country of 1.4 million...
The US getting frustrated with the ref..
FFS you play in Concacaf region, the refereeing always sucks there. There is a reason why soccer fans in Europe know what the term "Concacaf'd" means.
The US just hasn't developed into a credible team. No one is expecting the US to be a top team. But we have not even matched 2nd tier teams like Japan who can put forward a consistent effort.
US is generally in control. No magic yet from Pulisic or Bale. Whales has not been able to mount very many quality attacks. US gets the ball in position, but hasn't created any real opportunities yet. But US definitely has superior movement in the midfield. Not so much around the goal.
Jfc I hate Berhalters tactics. I just watched them like 3x in 5 minutes play a 40 yard back pass to the goalie. It's like they aren't even coached to try to find someone in the offensive half. Instead it's dump it back to the goalie and let me him pass it of the back.
A team who can high pressure and lock down the midfield (like Japan) will destroy the US and these tactics.

Well, a little bit from Pulisic
Sssssshhhhhhhhhhh

Until now. Perfect pass to Weah. US is definitely picking it up on offensive. Whales just can't get the ball out of the midfield to set anything up on the other end.

You'll see more action now. US backfield was taking their time because Wales was packing defense. Can't do that when you're behind.

I guess we'll see when the US plays Japan in the semis.
Clinical performance by the US in the first half. Dominated. Could be 2-0
The 2 early yellows sucked but they absolutely shut down Wales.
