Bad foul by Zimmerman.
Wales was the better team in the second half.
Pulisic was kinda piss poor that second half—just bitches a lot and gave the ball away often.

One third of our players have yellows.
When do they clear?

They clear once the quarters begin. Dumb rule.

Loved how crisp the US was to start. Just seemed to run out of gas and Wales seemed fresh.

I'll take a point, but still frustrating. Just a bad foul by Zimmerman in an otherwise really good game from the back line.

Have to create more up front. But we're looking at a 2-1 defeat to Iran. Just have to beat Iran and beat them by more than what Wales does.

Wut?
Wales is a better squad than Iran and we had the overall better game.

We need Iran to play much better than they did today and somehow tie Wales.

Think the players are exhausted.

What a fun match though. That was a blast to watch. Up and down. Tired of boring IS matched. And that was not that.

Some good crosses all game. But he has his moments where he tries to do too much. I didn't think he was going to pass to Weah at first when Weah scored. Thought that was going to be a shot the whole way.

I think Zimmerman, other than that blunder, and it was a 2 point blunder, was good. I think our defense was generally good.

It’s just the attacking third.
We really have struggled there for a while now.

Wondering if Wales would have scored there, anyway. I say that a lot because I hope their fans pick Zimmerman up rather than roasting him. Lots of play left.

I don’t think they do though who knows.
Zimmerman didn’t need to tackle Bale who had his back to the goal. You make him pass or take a very tough shot.

USA “super fans” just get blindly enraged when it comes to MLS players, no matter what, so Zimmerman would get shit from that group regardless of what he did.

Also two of our four yellow cards were ultra soft.

Good for Saudi Arabia. Love the World Cup. That might shake up the first round of knockout.
