England are realising this isn’t like when we played Iran lol. USA have a well organised team, let’s see how Southgate adjusts.

England should pack their bags if they can't beat a team that couldn't even qualify 4 years ago.

There's no shame in being behind Honduras and Panama.

We move the ball too slowly. USA can just sit in their shape while we pass aimlessly around the back four with no forward pass. They've had the best chances too.

USA have energy and England look lethargic and void of ideas for the most part.

US played better so far, but I fear the set pieces. That's the achilles of this team. I am not sure why they even try to cross the ball, just play it short at every corner kick.

USA deserve to win this game so far, they have been pressing well. Every time they get forward they look dangerous.

the beauty (or not) of soccer...play a great half but score doesn't reflect it.

world cup so far has been a tale of 2 halves.

England has disappointed alot and if they are going to PK, they always lose.


So are the creators of football wining by 6 or 7 at the half?

Canada demolished Belgium in the first half and were the better team overall.

Lost.

England are just waiting for the knockout rounds to play their star player.

Agreed

Piles of steaming poo. If you can't beat the states what chance have you got against the likes of Costa Rica?
