Two early bookings for the US. Rash challenges.

It was a stupid foul on a ball going out of bounds. It was justified

I’ve just come back from the gym how’s the game? I was score watching and from the stats it seems a bit bland so far?

Sargent his post on a header , not much else besides two yellows for USA already.

Ref seemed to want to give Adams a yellow too even tho that wasn’t even a foul

Nervous, lacking quality, but decent energy from both sides. US started brighter but Wales creeping into the game now. Some chippy late challenges by the Americans resulted in two early bookings for Dest and McKennie.

Of all the yellows given out, that wasn't one?

Ref backed himself into a corner with the yellow on Dest. Bought the Wales player scream, without that he never books him. Set a bad precedent, every foul with a little bit of force has to be a yellow now.

Weah scores, 1-0. Deserve the lead, a good move and finish.

Goal!!!!!!!!!!’n

Well worked goal and fitting it’s Weah

Nice touch with the outside of the booty by Weah, much needed, just can't bunker up now

I’ve seen Wales lump the ball up top and have someone win the first header with not a Welsh shirt in sight for support.

Totally agree. Now Bale gets one because this ref couldn’t contain himself on the first foul of the game.

Great ball by Pulisic, great finish Weah
