0:00.0	Hey there! Welcome to Football with Grant Wall. Thanks so much for joining me.
0:11.8	USA-Nil, England-Nil at the World Cup. England is still never beaten, the United States.
0:19.6	In the history of the World Cup, men's or women's, and we're going to talk about it with Chris
0:25.5	winning him here in one second. Before we get going, you can subscribe to my riding site at
0:29.4	grantwall.com. I'm in Qatar doing daily coverage of World Cup 2022. That's grantwall.com.
0:36.3	Let's bring in Chris. How are you, my friend? I hope that coverage includes more coverage on the US
0:42.0	for another week longer. The US taking a step towards that. Today, although the surprise
0:46.9	result in the morning kind of changed the whole specter of how today was going to play out. But
0:52.7	yeah, I was appreciative of the US performance today and a lot to get stuck into.

1:43.3	that the first US reaction from the players I was told when they saw the Iran score was,
1:49.6	this is huge. We control our own destiny now. And that also came up after tonight's game against
1:59.5	England, where the US knows they need to beat Iran to advance. If they do not beat Iran, they will
2:07.1	not advance. And there is a lot to talk about here from this game against England. I guess
2:15.4	one thing would be it felt a little bit, England's obviously better than Mexico. There are
