USA vs Wales

[Steel Icarus]

Didn't realise that's George Weah's lad. Wish we'd been able to persuade Alfie Haaland's son to play for the land of his birth

Love the look of the bucket hatted Red Wall!

They've a good gene pool to pull from - Claudio Reyna's lad in on the bench.

An awful lot of Americans I've met literally have no idea where Wales (or what it is).

But today I've learnt that 5 out of 6 of the first US presidents were of Welsh descent. I love soccerball commentary trivia!

When I went to New York a local I got talking to and asked me where in England I was from had never heard of York, despite her city being the new one.

I've a strong enough geography backround to know exactly where Wales is and its sovereignty

Maybe that goal will wake up Wales...

Dammit. I had Pulisic for first goal..

 

[skyscraper101]

Good goal. Come on Wales, play up.

That's lovely to hear. But I wasn't talking about you.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Great goal tbf

No idea why that was a card.

 

[editor]

If we're going to get yellow cards for perfectly legal challenges we really are fucked.

 

[souljacker]

This could get away from the Welsh quite easily here.

 

[Steel Icarus]

It was a foul, a tackle from behind and his right foot took the guy first. Soft yellow but it wasn't a legal tackle imo

[Hollis]

Shame they don't do live coverage of the half-time 'team talk'.

You could cheer yourself up with the USA soccer guy Wales T-shirt...

I didn't want to make that "all-too-obvious" wise crack about "Whales"

 

[1%er]

I've got everyone here in the bar supporting País de Gales (Wales in Brazilian Portuguese)

 

[Supine]

Better start to this half

I actually really like some of their shirts. Especially these two (I'd never wear one though, I just like ideas)

 

[skyscraper101]

Loved the very visible 'Fuck Off' from Rob Page there on the replay of the bench when Bale was fouled.

 

[AverageJoe]

Anyway, enough derail.

 

[bcuster]

This is a big game for both teams. I'm happy no matter the outcome, tbh. I am rooting for USA, however...

 

[Steel Icarus]

Far better this from Wales. But Bale and Ramsey looking rusty.

 

[Maggot]

WTF is a defensive line break?
