How lucky a draw was that? The US attack was very underwhelming today. Tim Howard is a legend.
This was the only keeper combo that could've netted the US a draw. If Green wasn't in England wins 1-0. If Howard wasn't in, England probably wins 5-0. |

Credit the American defenders though for clamping down when it mattered. England had a lot of open space but never looked comfortable in the box.
Also Slovenia and Algeria better be ready because Rooney will probably be out for blood after today. |

The American defence was shite, aside from Onyewu who was a fucking mountain of a man. He made up for the rest of them.

![]() US played the better football overall, honestly, albeit lacking much of a cutting edge. Cole neutralised Donovan fairly well, he'll come alive in the other games. Carragher could've been sent off in another game, and if Altidore could finish it could easily have been 2-1. Should get through the group easily - depending on how it turns out US can make the quarters again, no problem. Can't believe it's 2010 and the England team contains Rob Green, Jamie Carragher, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Emile Heskey and Peter Crouch. Good god ![]() *sigh* Anyway, let us hope Algeria and Slovenia don't get any ideas. |

That whole stick your foot out and hope to deflect the shot wide technique that the US was using today has got to go.

What the hell was up with our passing? So many shitty passes. And I'm not talking long balls either, but short stuff. While under little to no pressure. Inexcusable at this level that we had so many give aways.

Which was the closest either side came. To say they did nothing 2nd half is a gross simplification. Heskey had the one on one but other than that England did not create a significant chance on goal in the 2nd half. Call it bad luck, call it last ditch defending, whatever.

What im on about is we dominated posession, and chances created. Heskey let us down at the crucial moment. I've been one of his supporters but im starting to get frustrated with him, it aint a joke anymore.

I don't know about posession in the whole match but it was 51-49 for USA at the beginning of the 2nd half. Couldn't see much of the 2nd half cause the broadcast was shit cause of massive storm.

Possession means nothing without incisive play. We spent a ton of time knocking it around the back four without going anywhere.
It's eerily like 2007. Pass it about the back while under no pressure, get bored/frustrated/tired, hoof it to the target man, try to feed off scraps. South Korea keep the ball better than we do. |

US played pretty shit in that game. They showed signs (Altidore, Findley,) of greatness at points, but overall they were not good. Thier passing game made me want to rip my hair out and they dragged thier feet a lot of the time within the first 25 minutes when thier legs should be fresh. Obviously we caught a lucky break, but Howard was fucking incredible. He saved the game about 5 times.
It always seemed like England had more players on the field, which says a lot about the game. They surrounded the USA on midfield defense, but USA played pretty good defense in thier goal, except for the Lampard goal. |
