England take on the visitors USA in the round 2 match of group stage of FIFA World Cup 2022. The match will be played on Friday, November 25th at Al Bayt Stadium (Al Khor).
England approached the tournament with rather opposite assessments. On the one hand, the current generation is perhaps the most successful in all the centuries of international tournaments. Yes, it did not repeat the success of the legendary 1966, but who else from the British could boast of having consistently played in the semi-finals of the World Cup, and then fought to the last, right up to the penalty shootout of the decisive match, at the Euro? In this regard, the trophy now naturally looked like the next step. On the other hand, those successes were attributed to a convenient calendar (2018) and an abundance of home meetings (2021, by the way, the final was also held at Wembley), at the same time criticizing Southgate for being cautious, bordering on cowardice. And the failure in the Nations League this year stands apart. They even talked that Gareth would leave after the current championship. But his wards gave out the most spectacular match of the 1st round in Qatar, scoring 6 goals - this is with Kane being “silent”. But even here it was not without questions: Iran is clearly not in the best shape due to violent protests at home

USA returned to the World Cup. How they managed not to go to the previous tournament of this level is still a mystery. By the way, not everything was so smooth in the current qulification. Its result was the occupation by Gregg Berkhgalter's wards of only 3rd place, below not only the usual competitor, Mexico, but also Canada. And, most importantly, Costa Rica was behind only in additional indicators with equal points. However, this was attributed to the early completion of the task, which allowed them to relax in the last round. These problems with concentration backfired already in Qatar. The Yankees opened the scoring against Wales when Weah Jr. used a great Pulisic pass. But for some reason, the vague Welsh were allowed to seize the initiative. And then, in an optional situation, Bale was allowed to earn on the penalty. Gareth could not screw up such a chance, and converted the 11-meter shot, bringing the final 1-1.
Everyone remembers the cult victory at the 1950 World Championship of amateurs from the States over the smarties from Albion. Then, however, England won 3 out of 4 matches ... But the only official one, at the 2010 World Cup, ended in a draw. It's time for the “Three Lions” to finally formalize victory in an official duel with the “Yankees”. You can even take a chance and place a bet on the England team with a handicap of “-1 goal scored”.
Prediction for the match: England to win with -1.0 handicap.
