Ask me if you have a question about football. World Cup or otherwise.

I don't know everything but I am fairly knowledgable about the game and I follow it internationally. I also love talking about it.

What do you think of the US performance in the first half against Wales?

@windinhishair Pretty strong. Deserved lead at the break.

Dominant in midfield and Wakes haven't had a sniff. Perhaps a lack of cutting edge to make the domination count. Though I expect them to be a test for England on Friday.

@Burnley123 I assume Wales will play better in the second half, just started.

@windinhishair I just don't think Wales are very good. tbh. Their team is mostly made up of Championship players (the level below the Premier League) and they are playing like it! They have overachieved in recent years but I think you guys have too much for them, especially in midfield.

@Burnley123 The US has the better team on paper, but that's why they play the game.

@windinhishair Indeed. Wales has indeed improved since the break. LOL

@Burnley123 Nice save by Turner.

@windinhishair In the second half, I thought the US team made a big mistake in sitting back and their passing was also poor. Wales are technically limited but showed incredible grit. USA will now have to qualify the hard way.

@Burnley123 The US gave up a golden chance to move on. Still, the last five times the US has won or tied their opening match, they've qualified.
