42- Ream cleans up a good chance for Wales on the goal line wide. Quick counters work against USA as they lose it after winning, then lose it again, then win it back, settle it down, and again take it slow and easy swinging it side to side in the back line.

43 - Musah badly turns It over to Wales at the midfield circle. At moments in this half, USA seem too nervous and conservative, but so far it has paid off.
44- A Robinson uses head to clear ball over the touchline for a corner to Wales who are dangerous.
45 - Wales corner high and long, headed over touchline far side leads to USA goal kick.

Wales are frustrated and not happy. USA possession is running them ragged, but they are still in the game only a goal down. USA needs to keep applying the pressure.
HALFTIME. 1-0 USA!

Felt like a CONCACAF match in the 1st half. Opponents bunkered, questionable officiating, but we got a goal. Hopefully we get one or two more to put it away.

One hour in, USA showing signs of weakness as Wales get ball forward behind usa line, but nothing comes from it. USA now losing 50/50 balls.
