Smart of the federations to tell them not to wear the bands. So that the players aren't put in a bad position to have to decide. Now just the federation (and fifa) look bad.
 
US Lineup is out.

Turner
Robinson Ream Zimmerman Dest
McKennie Musah Adams
Weah Sargent Pulisic

Yunus Musah will become the youngest player to start a World Cup match for the US at 19.
 
FuboTV has a free 7-day trial, so you can watch today's match vs Wales and Friday's against England.

If you've signed up before, just use a different email address and credit card and you can sign up again. Or so I've heard.

Can't tell if that's booing during the anthem.
I guess I don't necessarily blame them, but yeah....

Ironic, because if we didn't care about their oil their country wouldn't exist. The UK and the USA are the only reason they aren't part of Saudi Arabia.
 
The 85% who win their first match move on is a little cherry picked, isn’t it? If Pot 1 is always playing a Pot 4 team first, there’s half the games that are a top 8 team against a Best of the Rest group. Surely they should win those and since they’re a top 8 team surely they would have the best chance at moving on anyway.

It does get more interesting when you look at Pot 2 vs Pot 3 matchups because those in theory should be more even, but even that’s still going to be a 9-20 against low 20s or 30s team.

Seems like it’s more or less the good teams just being good?

It may be.. but for the US.. we've never advanced when losing game 1
