Both England and USA qualified for the round of 16. Qatar beat Iran & Wales in 2022

The third and final day of Group B of the World Cup in Qatar England beat Wales 3-0 and qualify for the Round of 16 to face Senegal. Good too USA beat Iran 1-0 A balanced game with no big emotions on the pitch: Stars and Stripes take on Holland.

Pulisic gives the U.S. eighth place, with Iran out. Messages in favor of Iranian women and fair play in the stands
Pulisic’s goal in the 38th minute of the first half sent the U.S. into the second round of the World Cup in Qatar, upsetting Iran. The Americans, who finished Group B in second place behind England, continue their journey in Qatar 2022: next Saturday, in the first round of 16, they will face Group A winners the Netherlands. Ahead of the much-anticipated first leg of the World Cup, however, there was more than just talk about football. The poor relations between Iran and the United States cannot be given otherwise. Hours earlier, CNN reported that families of players on the Iranian national soccer team had been threatened with “arrest and torture if the players do not behave before the match against the United States.”

Thus, as happened in the game against Wales and unlike the debut against England, the Iranian players sang, or rather whispered, their anthem. However, Asmoun shut up the star. Many t-shirts lined up in Doha’s Al Thumama stadium in support of the Iranian women’s protest, but Persian and American fans also sat in support of their teams under the banner of fair play. On the other side of the world, on the other side, on the lawn of the White House, at the same moments, a sign appeared with the inscription: “Force USA! We are all with you!”. And a photo of the sign was retweeted by President Joe Biden and the first lady on Twitter: “We believe we can win!”. Hope is good. The importance of the stakes and the “political” weight of a match cannot be underestimated and has certainly affected both teams.

After a good performance against Wales, Iran were denied a chance to progress. Azmoun, who is very lonely, and Taremi, the other star, are never dangerous. The USA were the better side as they began to grind the game out from midway through the first half, thanks to the efforts of McKenney, Test in midfield and on the right wing. The opening goal was created precisely in the Juventus-Milan mold: McKenney launched for Test, who headed in and presented the golden ball to Pulisic, who easily grabbed it to make it 1-0. A goal that cost him dearly: The 24-year-old Chelsea striker was forced to stay in the dressing room at half-time after colliding with goalkeeper Beirenwand. Weah also did well in the first 45 minutes: a goal was disallowed in the seventh minute of extra time for a millimeter offside by George’s son. Back on the field, Iranian coach Queiroz tried to shake up his team, not allowing a sluggish Azmoun to return and Kodos was replaced. The attacker worried the Americans on two occasions, first with a header in the 7th minute and then with a foot, equalizing almost 12 minutes later. Almost nothing, if not protesting in the ninth minute of extra time when an alleged penalty foul on Taremi. In the end, the party is American, tears (not so bitter) Iranian.
