00:00...on home soil for the first time in 32 years.
00:25Ready, it is finally time for the US to have their say.
00:28Front, Sanabria, he will play as that point person in his World Cup debut.
00:34Five starters for the US.
00:35Started the minute the 1994 World Cup ended.
00:38A smashing success both on and off the field.
00:45Lead out in the field for Paraguay.
00:47And the other, Almarone, was the target.
00:49Sergino test.
00:50And now he was, in fact, offside.
00:53So that's the semi-automated offside technology.
00:56Okay, he's going to get on the end of that one.
00:57Knots an inflow, battling it out of control.
01:00It's right to the goalkeeper, Orlando Hill.
01:01But a good early attacking for McKinney.
01:04Trying to be elusive for the midfield, too.
01:06And Koubassin, but...
01:08Alonso lobs it forward.
01:10Reap through it.
01:11Ciso coming in off an injury a week ago.
01:13Cross in.
01:13Richards is there in time.
01:18Last out of Cosseris for a US throw.
01:19Well, good clearance.
01:20But that's the day.
01:21Pulisic in the box.
01:22Weston McKinney into the middle.
01:24It's an on-goal.
01:25It's the United States on the board.
01:27Less than seven minutes in.
01:34Goal to the US.
01:36Yeah!
01:41Anthony Robinson for Pulisic.
01:43Again for Koubassin.
01:44Again skips away.
01:45He's tripped up.
01:45And let's see what Danny Markley decides to do.
01:47Is he going to go early for a yellow card?
01:49He is.
01:50Juan Jose Cosser.
01:51A touch to create the space.
01:52Hooks it into the middle.
01:53Bodies crashing.
01:54Pumped up with Mexico.
01:55And we saw with Canada.
01:57The other way.
01:58Pulisic.
01:59Balligan.
02:00Waiting for support.
02:01Early cross.
02:02Across his field right now.
02:03Weston McKinney.
02:04Early cross.
02:06Tillman.
02:08And right into traffic.
02:09It's going to be a foul though.
02:11That was Bobadia.
02:12Who met Tillman.
02:13And Tillman is.
02:14For Guayard.
02:14They said if you're going to sit back.
02:16We're going to play with numbers in the attack.
02:18Pat.
02:18Missing.
02:20Pulisic.
02:20Clips it forward.
02:21So.
02:22We're backing off him at least at first on the deck.
02:24Well wide of Matt Frieses' goal.
02:27And he felt like he took a touch as he got that shot off.
02:30We end up winning this.
02:32Just swing and a miss.
02:33Trying to clear.
02:34Almiron draws the contact.
02:36Told to get up by the referee.
02:38Brings it down.
02:39Robinson.
02:40Great spot.
02:41Richards.
02:42That'll come off the defender.
02:43It's going to be a foul.
02:45And now concern as Richards is down.
02:48Alterete.
02:49Call from Allegan.
02:50Here's Sergino.
02:51Daz.
02:52Cuts it back in the middle.
02:53It'll end up out for a corner.
02:59Just all kinds of movement.
03:01Now a chance for Paraguay to get across into the penalty.
03:04A block.
03:05Tillman.
03:05Great flick.
03:06McKinney.
03:06Couldn't do much with it.
03:08And it's a goal kick.
03:09Tillman sees US have good possession.
03:11We've got good cover defensive.
03:13Tillman.
03:14That was just enough there by Alonso.
03:16Now in Caceres.
03:17Overhits the cross.
03:19And first touch.
03:20Still Adams.
03:21Balogun tight angle.
03:23It's in.
03:26Flo Balogun.
03:28Lay in the call.
03:28That is actually the system working.
03:31Go on the run.
03:32Pulisic trying to cut it back.
03:33It's Balogun.
03:34That time it's in.
03:36That time the flag is going down.
03:38That time it's 2-0 United States.
03:43Beautiful goal.
03:54McKinney popping up on the left this time.
03:56The top for Weston McKinney.
03:58Early in.
03:58Doesn't find Dest.
04:00Malarone.
04:00Serginio Dest dancing his way through.
04:02Tripped up.
04:03Clipping in advance.
04:03It's not.
04:04Little pump fake.
04:05Tillman.
04:06Trying to find battle.
04:07Dest hooks it in.
04:10McKinney threw a shot.
04:11A little cut back.
04:11Into the middle.
04:12Balogun!
04:13And it was just on the deck.
04:15Stabbed away.
04:15Only as far as Malik Tillman blocks.
04:18And that'll spin it behind for a U.S. corner.
04:20To Pulisic.
04:21He's attracting two defenders every time.
04:23Here comes a crunch in.
04:24It's fine.
04:25Swings in the corner.
04:26Richards!
04:27Just wide.
04:31So this time everybody's at the back post.
04:33They free up Marine.
04:34He drags a defender with him.
04:40It's going to pull back for a foul.
04:42Float back.
04:42Freeze clips it long.
04:45So the resilience can.
04:46Just trying to get around the corner.
04:48Also he does.
04:49And he wouldn't see so now.
04:51It's a great tackle by Freeman.
04:53Our teammate for the next month and a half.
04:56And Pulisic there is going to commit that foul.
04:59Weston McKinney who cuts it back into the traffic.
05:02Tillman!
05:03Adams gets nutmeg with the pass.
05:05Richards quickly up the field.
05:06Fox at midnight local time.
05:08Robinson too far for back.
05:10Doesn't have a cutback support.
05:11And ends up having his pocket picked by Andres.
05:13To get inside.
05:15Staballigan!
05:16Float by LeGon!

05:47of how quickly you're back on skip away their shots your traffic knocked down
05:52first to react to us looking on tim ream green couldn't get anything on that one
05:57decision on the field's gonna be a free kick for him
06:02better popped in the air freeze thought about coming for if I but before this
06:06tournament did this player I'm a reviewer is taken away
06:10still a long long way back it was a risky challenge there referee had a very good
06:16view of it
06:25Tillman down off the chest and all the technical talent on display for the USA
06:32Tillman for support into the medal Sebastian Berhalter not gonna be a death
06:36brings it down
06:36dance we're gonna cut it back into the middle
06:39Tillman trying to clear the rebound can't do so
06:42and it's gonna be blasted in the stands in the end
06:45Alex Freeman remains down on the other side of the field yeah this would have been
06:49interesting on a set and see so on his way Chris Richards across play safe tackles
06:53out to the byline on the deck we start for Paraguay Adams wins the header back in
07:00the middle of the field try to get there and see so
07:02to the far side Mauricio scores
07:06and Paraguay are able to chip away they are able to create some doubt
07:12it's the Brazilian border yellow Tillman cuts inside of him trying to slip it through too far
07:23and then he gets kind of rolled up from behind that's gonna be a free kick for the U.S.
07:30left in his legs right now can he just draw a foul maybe
08:01and he does
08:02and Ciso draws the contestant and Ciso hooks it in
08:06Richards got a piece of it popped in the air
