(AP Photo/Ebrahim Noroozi)World Cup 2022, England vs USA Football Match Highlights: England and USA shared points as they played out a 0-0 draw at the Al Bayt Stadium on Friday. Before half time, the Americans came closest to breaking the deadlock in the 33rd minute through Christian Pulisic. Pulisic’s left-foot shot from the edge of the area cannnoned off the bar as the United States enjoyed a purple patch at the end of the half. Skipper Harry Kane had England’s best chance in the 10th minute but his shot was blocked.
In the last match, Ecuador’s “Superman” captain Enner Valencia led a feisty fightback on Friday as the South Americans drew 1-1 with the Netherlands in Group A to keep both teams in the running for the last 16 while ending hosts Qatar’s chances of qualifying. Qatar lost their second successive game at their debut World Cup earlier on Friday to Senegal and are eliminated. In the early kickoff, in what was perceived as a must win match for them, Iran beat Wales 2-0 to grab three points and rise to the second spot in Group B.

Reyna fouled. Can USA smash and grab this one? Pulisic will take the free kick. Short free kick and time has run out. The two teams share the spoils.

Free kick for England now. Can they do anything from it. Just 2 left of the added 4 mins. Shaw over the ball. It's near the left flank. Ohhhhhhhhhh!!!! Harry Kane gets a head but it's gone wide!!!!

Corner for England now as Moore clears a lofted ball behind. Trippier to take. Maguire hets a part of his head to it but Turner has it.
ENG 0-0 USA
A rather hopeful shot from Rashford is grasped by Turner. The move that set the shot up was prertty nice. Grealish takes a bulk of Blue shirts away with him to free up Rashford with a back heel. The Manchester city man looks to be the most creative of the English contingent.
