Twitter reacts as USMNT draws 0-0 against England
The United States men's national team drew 0-0 against England, earning a point to sit in third place of the Group B standings. Iran's early victory against Wales left the United States with pressure to earn a positive result against England. The tie is less than optimal for the American side, forcing a must-win in their last group stage match on Tuesday.
Like with Wales, the USMNT started off strong. Weston McKennie saw his first chance at goal in the 25th minute, failing to find the back of the net after connecting with Tim Weah.

Good half from the USA, England underwhelming so far despite having a couple of efforts towards the back end of the half. This one is nicely poised going into the second half. #WorldcupQatar2022
