England vs USA preview
England were always favorites to qualify from Group A and the Three Lions displayed exactly why with a scintillating performance against Iran in Doha. England ran riot winning 6-2 in the end, and while Gareth Southgate’s men did look defensively brittle on occasion, it was an impressive performance overall. It also represented England’s biggest ever opening game victory at a major tournament, which is perhaps a good omen. It was also a performance that confirms England should not be written off as a candidate to win the World Cup this year. Is football coming home in 2022? Probably not. But right now all of England is dreaming that just maybe this is the year that all those years of hurt will be washed away. Conversely, the USA’s first match of World Cup 2022 was very much a game of two halves. Timothy Weah gave the U.S. the lead going into the break after a strike on the 36th minute, but a Gareth Bale penalty 10 minutes from full time meant that USA had to settle for a draw against Wales. While far from a disastrous result the underwhelming second half, and the relatively anonymous performance of Christian Pulisic will be a concern for coach Gregg Berhalter. If the USA is going to take something against England, and progress into the knockout rounds, they will need a more complete performance over an entire 90 minutes. England will come into this game in high spirits, but the memory of their last World Cup meeting with the USA may linger. That game in 2010 saw England goalkeeper Robert Green make a blunder from a tame Clint Dempsey shot, the match finished 1-1. The USA would likely take a similar result this time around, and it would set them up nicely for a crunch clash with Iran. If England can win they would see their qualification confirmed, but the USA will know they cannot meekly surrender this match if they want their World Cup journey to extend beyond the group stages. The England vs USA live stream will one you won’t want to miss.
England vs USA team news
Gareth Southgate has named an unchanged starting XI for this game against the USA. There had been fears that star striker Harry Kane might miss the match after suffering a knock against Iran, but he’s deemed fit to play from the start. Harry Maguire also came off injured in the Three Lions first World Cup game, but again has passed the checks in mid week and keeps his starting place. The USA similarly endured a few injury problems against Wales as Weston McKennie and Yunus Musah were forced off. But both have rallied and are fit again to start. However, Berhalter hasn’t opted to keep the exact same team and has instead made a single change for the side’s toughest test of the World Cup yet. Norwich City’s Josh Sargent drops to the bench with Haji Wright replacing him. England: Pickford, Shaw, Rice, Stones, Maguire, Kane, Sterling, Trippier, Saka, Mount, Bellingham. USA: Turner, Dest, Zimmerman, Ream, Robinson, McKennie, Adams, Musah, Weah, Wright, Pulisic.
