The USMNT drew 0-0 with England in the second game of group B at Al Bayt Stadium, setting up a must-win scenario to advance in Tuesday’s game three with Iran. The USMNT is in 3rd-place with two points from group play. The USMNT put 10 shots on goal to England’s eight, but England finished with three on frame to one for the United States.
“I think both teams worked hard,” USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter told FOX. “Both teams gave each other difficulties at times, and all in all, pleased with the effort. Any time you can get a shutout in a World Cup, it’s a good thing.”
In group B’s other game, Iran beat Wales 2-0 to move into 2nd-place on three points. With Wales playing a man down from an 86th minute red card to goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey, Iran’s Rouzbeh Cheshmi scored eight minutes into stoppage time and Ramin Rezaeian doubled the lead three minutes later.
