SLPressure Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 1 hour ago, WxUSAF said: US should beat Iran though, right?? Obviously a draw or win today is much preferred, but as long as they don’t get crushed against England and then beat Iran, they should advance on goal differential? On paper, yes. USA ranked 16th and Iran 20th. But as Yoda quoted, the USA has 4 starters with yellow cards. This usually means they have to play cautiously lest they receive another card. And England is formidable. Iran knows they only have to tie at best if Wales ties or loses to England. They could play a very defensive game, clogging up the midfield and backline, relying on the occasional counterattack. A tie today would be huge! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacChump Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 If you can’t win a single game in your group then you probably don’t really deserve to move on. US played well today and I expect them to beat Iran. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to beat somebody and this is the team they should win against. Let’s gooo!! If you told me that we’d have a “win against Iran and you’re through” scenario going into this tournament, I’d have happily taken that option. Iran will be a tough game, but we have to be confident after the England match….and with such a young team I can see us going into it with a really positive attitude. 15 hours ago, MacChump said: If you can’t win a single game in your group then you probably don’t really deserve to move on.

I feel really good about Tuesday, but of course my optimism is very guarded. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
