They actually have to win a match now. Berhalter's "system" is not conducive to actually winning games against quality competition. Iran just needs to play for a draw on Tuesday and they are through - US won't get a shot off. Makes the Wales failure that much worse. The shellacking that England puts on them today will be hard to see.

USA needs to beat Iran regardless of what happened earlier.

I guess if you don't win a match in the group stage, sure, it is for every team usually.

Lol. How often do teams get through the group stage without winning a match?

For someone with that user name, you should have known that three points was always going to be required against Iran. Everyone has known that since the draw.

A loss to England doesn’t matter at all. Team Gregggg is playing with house money today. Only Tuesday matters now.

Regardless of what happens today, we’ll beat Iran by 3 goals. Stop being a pussy.

If you can’t win one match in group play, invariably you don’t advance.

May as well have it all relying on the match with Iran.

We need to focus on no injuries or yellow cars accumulations…

Maybe not by 3 goals, but it can be done.

At least 3 of our top players already have yellows.

3 ties doesn’t do it because all three teams would just need one win to go through instead of the us.

I can think of only 1 team that advanced with 3 ties - 1998 Chile.

US was always going to have to win at least 1 game

Keep the game close today and beat Iran. Pretty doable way to advance. If we can’t get one win, we don’t deserve to advance.

I agree a draw was ideal and we would have certainly had it if not for a wreckless decision by the Welsh goalkeeper

At least Wales didn’t win and we are able to control our own destiny.
