I swear Harry Maguire looks like he was pulled straight out of a Harry Potter film.

england must be doing something specifically on set pieces that is confusing our guys

This is making the second half against Wales even more frustrating. If that possible.

Even a bunch of 8 year old kids will run towards the ball. No clue what we're doing.

That's where we've always struggled and why I'm kinda nervous that we need a win now with Iran beating Wales.

.43 vs .36 xG for the good guys
62% possesion by England (but I'd say a significant chunk was their CB's passing to each other sideways)

We had great intensity without a ton of effort! Last game we played all out for 45 minutes. Here we played really hard for 25-30 minutes. Much smarter play

I know nothing about soccer, but for the last 15 minutes or so, it felt like we were the better team... First 15 minutes felt the opposite.

From the BBC live blog:

United States fans chanting "it's called soccer" over and over again as their team continues to enjoy the better of things.

Terrible chant though...

American soccer fans aren't known for their creative chants

This is where Berhalter has to earn his salary. He brought us out with the right tactics throughoutt the 1st half.
Can he make the right moves at half and in the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half?

Great first half.

England had more possession, but it was empty calories. We had more chances, certainly more of the dangerous chances.

Berhalter pushed all the right buttons. I like the formations, attacking plan and roster. He needs to have a quick trigger with the subs. We can't afford any drop in intensity or speed. If anybody gets slow, pull them.

It's gonna be tough to score off those aerial crosses, but nothing bad ever happens by peppering the area with passes. Good creativity cycling the ball around to get the ball in, now let's just finish!

And yes, whoever said it earlier, our boys can RUN

Great half!

Keep pouring it on them in the box!
