A loss for USA against Iran will eliminate them but a win will assure them a spot in the knockout stages. As for England, they can be positive about their chances but a knockout spot is not guaranteed yet.

A promising match ended in disappointment. England still lead the group with four points while the USA sit third with two points on the board.

Phil Foden created as many chances against the USA as Raheem Sterling, Mason Mount and Harry Kane.

Both England and USA had their set of opportunities to break the deadlock but the finishing was subpar tonight. That being said, this draw beautifully sets up Group B's final round of fixtures.

Quite a disappointing result from England's perspective, especially given the talent at their disposal. The 0-0 result means this is the fifth goalless draw of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Credit to the USA for putting up a strong fight and causing problems for the Three Lions.

90+4' FULL TIME!! The game finishes without goals as both teams share a point each.

90+3' CHANCE MISSED !! Harry Kane has an amazing chance from Luke Shaw's free-kick but he fires it wide. What a chance it was for England!

90+2' Musah commits an unnecessary foul on the left. England have the chance to dart the ball into the box.

90+1' Trippier finds Maguire through the corner-kick but the Manchester United defender hits a bouncy header straight to Turner.

90+1' England win a late corner. Can Harry Maguire make the difference tonight?

Additional time: 4 minutes

90' Nothing eventful happening yet as the game closes to its end.

87' Rashford finds some space on the left and takes a shot but hits straight at Turner.

85' England have not just lacked creativity today but also the intent and hunger to win the half-chances.

83' Haji Wright is subbed off. Josh Sargent comes on.

83' Timothy Weah is subbed off. Giovanni Reyna comes on.

3 x possession won
3 passes into opp. box
3 touches in opp. box

72' England are nowhere close to their best today. They'll need some individual quality to get the three points today with just under 20 minutes of normal time remaining.

US did a really good job on Bellingham, who I can't remember having a moment where he could turn and carry the ball. Henderson isn't a thrilling name but it's absolutely fine as a change if he can just give the defense another option.
— James Benge (@jamesbenge) November 25, 2022

68' Jude Bellingham is subbed off. Jordan Henderson comes on.

68' Raheem Sterling is subbed off. Jack Grealish comes on.

66' Henderson are Grealish likely to come on soon. Still no sign of Phil Foden.

64' Pickford almost miscalculates this one, only for him to getting some fingertips for one more corner.

64' Another corner for USA. Fourth corner in the last ten minutes.

63' The Three Lions are losing possession every now and then. Southgate will have to act quickly before its too late for the Three Lions.

61' USA are bombarding England with corners as Maguire continues to single-handedly deny them.

As every second passes, the absence of Phil Foden becomes more and more confusing. Kane an absolute statue, too.
— Leanne Prescott (@_lfcleanne) November 25, 2022

60' Another corner for USA as Robinson's corner gets deflected off Stones. The pressure is building on England.

59' Maguire once again very effective in defending the corner.

58' Corner for USA as Pulisic's shot gets deflected.

55' Raheem Sterling has struggled to get involved in the game. Wouldn't come as a surprise if Southgate brings on Foden for the Chelsea forward soon.

The #USMNT has one win at the #FIFAWorldCup when tied at halftime:

51' Luke Shaw will have to be better at securing England's left side when out of possession as the Americans exploited it frequently in the first half.

47' No changes at half-time then.

46' The referee blows the whistle as the second half is underway.

It seems that the substitutions in this match will have a massive role to play. If it does come to do that, England are at an advantage given the fine quality of players they have on the bench.

4 - The #USMNT has not conceded a goal in the first half in any of its last four World Cup matches, its longest such streak, and has allowed just two goals before halftime of its last eight World Cup matches. Pragmatic. pic.twitter.com/LvEzCri2EK

England have been very sloppy when in possession and this is something Southgate has to address in his half-time team-talk. Their midfielders are also struggling to have an impact, which is an area that will be key for England if they are to turn around the tempo of the game.

Yunus Musah’s first half by numbers vs. England:

100% long balls completed
22 touches
3/5 ground duels won
2/2 tackles won
1 key pass

Gareth Southgate will have to be very proactive with his substitutes should the scoreline remain the same after 60 minutes. As for the States, they will have to be more clinical in front of the goal and capitalize on the opportunities available. It is all setup for an exciting second half as both teams are capable of winning from here.

England started the game well after a slow start, creating few half-chances but it was the States who grew better as the game progressed. Weston McKennie had the game's best chance as he hit the ball high from inside the box. Pulisic came close after hitting the crossbar and these are some very promising signs from the young American team.

45+1' HALF TIME!!! The first half ends goalless but it will be Gregg Berhalter who will be the happier manager from the two.

45+1' SAVE!!! Turner makes a good save after Mount takes a first-time shot from Sterling's pass. The shot comes from the outside of the box but the American goal is up for it.

Additional time: 1 minute

45' Shaw makes a fine run from the left wing into the box and feeds a good ball to Saka. The Arsenal man finds very little space to shoot the ball wide off the goal.

#usa fans chanting: "It's called soccer."
— James Olley (@JamesOlley) November 25, 2022

43' CHANCE!! Pulisic mistimes his header from a Dest cross only to shoot it wide. Had the Chelsea forward timed it well, USA might have had the first goal of the game.

42' Harry Maguire's positioning while defending corners has been quite spot on in this game.

41' Another USA attack that ends in a corner. Dest finds space on the right and tries to take a shot from inside the box but it deflects for a corner.

39' The States win a corner. The tempo of the game is totally in their favour right now.

36' Turner produces an amazing kick to find Pulisic on the counter but Stones intercepts to save England conceding a glorious chance to score.

There is more intensity about #USMNT out of possession than #Eng and that is the big difference at the moment. US look more dangerous. England ponderous at the minute.
— Rob Tanner (@RobTannerLCFC) November 25, 2022

33' WHAT A HIT!!! Pulisic takes a strike with his left foot beating Pickford but only to be denied by the crossbar. England get lucky.

32' The Three Lions wouldn't mind having some possession given that they have been deprived of it in the last ten minutes.

30' England look a bit unsettled with USA getting better with time and look more threatening now.

Weston McKennie misses the chance of the game. Pretty poor defending from England allowing the cross to be measured and to not pick him up. #FIFAWorldCup #ENG #USA
— Nizaar Kinsella (@NizaarKinsella) November 25, 2022

29' Musah takes a shot from long range but that isn't troubling Pickford one bit. The game's first shot on target after almost half an hour.

27' The Juventus man should have done better. USA did pretty well to create the game's best opportunity so far.

26' WHAT A CHANCE!! McKennie has a glorious chance inside the box to just guide the ball in the England goal from a Weah cross but it flies high.

20' The States do well to counter but the move is broken down. USA do look dangerous on the counter.

17' USA get their first shot as Wright heads wide from McKennie's cross.

16' Maguire has looked very solid so far and is quite an asset during set-pieces.

#ENG fans doing the Harry Maguire song on their first rendition. The band is in and trying to create an atmosphere in this vast arena.

14' England making more chances now, most of which are coming from the wings.

11' England do well to create with some smart passes in the box.

10' CHANCE!! Zimmerman blocks Kane's shot to hand England their first corner of the game. Good defending.

9' Both teams trying to settle into the game.

3' England's defense will be tested today with Pulisic and Weah on the wings.

1' England kick-start the first half in the hope of winning the game today.

Both teams are out as we are just a couple of minutes away from the kick off..

As expected, England unchanged for their match against the #USMNT. Kane starts despite having a scan on his ankle. Maguire has recovered from illness. And Saka keeps his place ahead of Foden following an undroppable performance against Iran.

Earlier today, Iran provided an impressive performance to beat Wales by 2 goals to nil. This allows England the perfect chance to seal their place in the knockout stages today.

USA were impressive in their first match of the 2022 FIFA World Cup but were unlucky to see it end in a 1-1 draw. At the same time, England had a stunning time in their campaign opener as they registered a 6-2 win over Iran.

Both teams have only met once earlier in a friendly where England registered a comfortable 3-0 victory in 2018. That was back then and now the American team has only grown stronger and sharper.
