The USMNT and Wales played to a 1-1 draw in their first group stage match at the WorldCup.
With Wales in need of a goal, the intensity went up a few gears for both sides in the second half. The Red Dragons also brought on Kieffer Moore as a half-time substitute for Dan James, who provided a big body for Wales to send long balls to evade the USMNT’s high press.
all entered in the 75th to provide some fresh legs to a worn-out U.S. side that kept pushing for a second goal. Turner dove the right way and got a hand on it, but Bale’s thunderous hit – and Wales’ first World Cup goal in 64 years – to the top right corner was never going to be stopped.
