The United States joined the ranks of the qualifiers for the final 16 of the World Cup in Qatar, after defeating Iran with a goal without a response, this evening, Tuesday, in the match that was held at Al-Thumama Stadium, at the end of the second group matches.
America’s only goal was scored by Christian Pulisic in the 38th minute.
With that result, America raised its score to 5 points, in second place, behind leaders England with 7 points, while Iran’s balance was frozen at 3 points, to bid farewell to the tournament from the first round.
The United States formed the first danger in the match in the ninth minute, with a shot from Moses from the edge of the area that went wide of the goal.
Pulisic went up to a cross in the 11th minute, hitting a weak header that went easily into Beranvard’s hand.
America returned to try in the 28th minute after Sargent hit a ball from the border of the area, which collided with Iran’s defense, and Weah followed it up with a header that was blocked by Iran’s goalkeeper.
Sargent then paved the ball for Loyah inside the area in the 33rd minute, and the latter fired a powerful ball that went over the crossbar.
The United States opened the scoring in the 38th minute, after Dest sent a magic pass with the head inside the 6-yard area, followed by Pulisic with a direct shot that hit the net.
And America searched for adding the second goal in the 42nd minute, by receiving a longitudinal through Sargent on the right side of the penalty area, after which he hit a powerful ground ball, which went far from the goal, to end the first half with America’s lead (1-0).
