Christian Pulisic cued up Timothy Weah for the first goal of Monday’s Group B opener between the USMNT and Wales in Qatar, and the Lille star made good with the Chelsea man’s feed with an outside-of-the-boot shot past Wayne Hennessey. U. coach Gregg Berhalter surprised some by starting Weah and Norwich City forward Josh Sargent over Brenden Aaronson and Jesus Ferreira, and Weah has paid dividends down the right side. [ LIVE: World Cup 2022 schedule, how to watch, scores, hub]He was central, however, when Pulisic’s pass found him breaking the Wales back line and snapped finish for 1-0. The play begins with Walker Zimmerman heading a loose ball clear of danger and Antonee Robinson claiming it on the left flank.

WATCH FULL MATCH REPLAYCody Gakpo headed home the long-awaited breakthrough in the 84th minute, at a time when a scoreless draw looked both inevitable and a fair awarding of the points. Davy Klaassen added a second goal in the 8th minute of second-half stoppage time to put Louis van Gaal’s side top of Group A alongside Ecuador (level on 3 points, +2GD and 2 goals scored).
Both have been battling for fitness and only just made this game. Changes at half time? Save! Wayne Hennessey saves as Rodon heads towards his own goal after good work from Tim Weah. Sargent then powers a header wide from close range. USA have to make the most of being on top here. Josh Sargent almost got his first World Cup goal.

One or two secondary attacking stars? Also check. World-class attacking superstar to bring it all together and rally around? Ah, finally we come to the issue for Senegal: Sadio Mane singlehandedly elevates these Lions of Teranga from being one of Africa’s best, to one of the best sides in the world capable of knocking off any heavyweight on any day. Monday’s performance was as solid and strong as could be, but Ismaila Sarr too often found himself without any support as he stretched his legs in the open field. The Netherlands were there for the taking as they battled many of the same issues themselves, with Memphis Depay carrying an injury into the World Cup and unable to start the opener. In the end, it was a coin flip which way a stray goal (or two) would go in the final few minutes.
USA v Wales Live: Score updates as Tim Weah gives
Veteran Tim Ream could start at center back to provide experience, while the midfield trio of Weston McKennie, Tyler Adams and Yunus Musah are locked in as the main men in midfield. Ahead of them Christian Pulisic, Gio Reyna, Brenden Aaronson and Tim Weah are all battling for a starting spot in attacking midfield but there is no clear winner to start as the No. 9, so perhaps the USMNT will start with a false nine? In terms of injuries, Sergino Dest, Matt Turner and Weston McKennie have all been training after brushing off recent injuries. However, Gregg Berhalter said that both Dest and McKennie are unlikely to play the full 90 minutes and said they aren’t fully fit for the opener against Wales.

The Leeds midfielder needs to help them get on the ball and stop Wales surging forward. CLOSE! Somehow Kieffer Moore heads over from close range. What a chance for Wales. SAVE! Matt Turner pushes a diving header from Ben Davies over the bar. It is all Wales now. #USA 1-0 #WAL — Joe Prince-Wright (@JPW_NBCSports) November 21, 2022Wales have started the second half well and the USMNT are having to spend a lot of time defending. TIM WEAH GOAL! 💥#USMNT take a 1-0 lead over Wales.

The USMNT get the goal their dominant display deserves. Tim Ream has been the best player on the pitch so far. My word. Superb on the ball and dominant defensively. What a comeback story! #USMNT — Joe Prince-Wright (@JPW_NBCSports) November 21, 2022Sergino Dest and Weston McKennie both booked within a few minutes. Not ideal.
