38' CHANCE USA!
S
By Simon Smale
From the corner Richards gets his head to the ball and sends it just wide of the base of the post!
What a brilliant header that was.
The USA about 10 cm away from another goal that would have buried Paraguay.
37' USA chances flowing like water!

Malik Tillman has a dig now on the edge of the penalty area, it's Andrés Cubas who blocks it.
35' Pulisic with the magician's feet
S
By Simon Smale
My word, Christian Pulisic is tearing the Paraguay defence a new one here.
Left and right, twisting and turning and the Paraguay defence is being turned inside out.
Wonderful feet again from Pulisic has Juan José Cáceres left in a different dimension.
He crosses to Balugun who heads wide.
Paraguay struggling

Goodness me, PAR swiss cheese defence, mentally and physically in strife...

31' THE USA HAS TWO NOW!
S
By Simon Smale
THEY CAN'T TAKE THAT ONE OFF HIM!
Christian Pulisic got down the left side and cut back towards the penalty area.
Balogun was arriving — the pass was so perfect he didn't even need to break stride — and he side-foots it home!
Brilliant, brilliant goal from the United States, who are cutting Paraguay to shreds left, right and centre at the moment!
29' Freeman in trouble...
S
By Simon Smale
Freeman has gone done after a scrum of hacking feet developed in front of the Paraguay bench.
He will be OK though.
28' THE USA HAVE TWO! OH NO THEY DON'T!
S
By Simon Smale
Folarin Balogun has the ball in the back of the net.
He looked across to the assistant referee with a very guilty look.
And the flag went up and he grimaced slightly.
Lovely finish, but it won't count.
25' Quarter time ad break

Sorry, drinks break. I'll get it right at some point...
23' USA continue to press
S
By Simon Smale
The football is settling into a rhythm but the USA are continuing to press towards goal.
There's been some delightful touches from the hosts so far, moving the ball around really nicely and patiently around the centre circle but then upping the tempo in the find third.
It's great football to watch.
Unless you're from Paraguay.
17' Head clash in the Paraguay penalty area
S
By Simon Smale
The USA whips in a corner and Chris Richards has knocked heads with Omar Alderete.
There is a bit of a delay but they are both going to be able to continue.
Nasty collision, that.
16' USA with a great chance!
S
By Simon Smale
Brilliant from the USA!
They should have had another goal but a horrible first touch from Sergiño Dest meant Paraguay were able to clear their lines for a corner.
Folarin Balogun should have shot after being played in by Pulisic.
He didn't and Paraguay concede a corner.

I’ve made it from Mexico to Texas, and am at the Dallas live site to soak up the vibes with the locals for this one. There’d be at least a few thousand people here already, with more trickling in.
I am of course an impartial observer, but I love a rowdy, chaotic crowd, so I guess go USA?
12' Paraguay too slow
S
By Simon Smale
Damián Bobadilla closes the door on Tillman and gives away another free kick.
Paraguay are just a fraction of a second too slow to the ball.
The USA are looking so sharp - it's going to be fascinating to see how long they can keep it up for.
10' Yellow card Paraguay
S
By Simon Smale
Juan José Cáceres absolutely scythes down Pulisic.
Very quick feet from Pulisic and Cáceres may protest by wagging his finger at the referee, but that was a stone cold yellow.
Free kick on the left side level with the edge of the penalty area.
The USA work it to the other side of the pitch and then cross but it goes all the way to the other side of the box.
Paraguay desperate to clear but the USA continue to build!
7' THE USA LEADS!
S
By Simon Smale
Lovely build up play from the USA!
Christian Pulisic darted into the penalty area with a lovely turn of pace.
He squared inside to Weston McKennie, but Damián Bobadilla chasing back stuck out his foot and poked it into his own net!
Disaster for Paraguay!
6' Great start from both teams
S
By Simon Smale
The atmosphere sounds absolutely insane at SoFi.
The crowd engaging in a long, slow and very loud chant of "U. S. A".
It's end to end stuff on the pitch too, both sides stretching each other.
3' CHANCE USA!
S
By Simon Smale
Folarin Balogun latches onto a flick on and races to the penalty area.
He just can't quite get his shot away, the pressure from Omar Alderete just too much.
He did get a touch, but not enough to trouble the keeper.
2' CHANCE PARAGUAY!
S
By Simon Smale
Matt Freese has to be alert at the near post after a lovely bit of movement from Diego Gómez after he linked up well with Antonio Sanabria.
The angle was so acute that ball has gone out for a throw in off the touch by Freese.
Questions ouvertes
- Will Paraguay be able to come back?
- Will there be more goals?
