00:00Also wants a replacement, Gio Reyna. This is number 11 for him.
00:04It's interesting, the two players who drop to the bench.
00:06In Seattle, and this is the United States of America against Australia.
00:13And you can hardly hear yourself think amid the cacophony of normals.
00:18I almost don't think I've been at the stadium and felt an atmosphere like this.
00:23Robinson's seen plenty of possession in the early stages.
00:28Now Dilman back to Richards. Now Serginho Dest.
00:35No time to take it down in control at the moment.
00:39A game that has started 100 miles an hour in Seattle.
00:43Crunching challenge for a kick to the USA.
00:49That was crunched into by Matthew Leck.
00:52He's brilliant with the ball recovery. Quick to react, win the ball back.
00:56He does take a kick for his troubles.
00:58Tyler Adams, who's clubside Bournemouth, did very well in the Premier League in England this season.
01:02They qualified for Europe.
01:04Dest.
01:05Nicely returned to Serginho Dest.
01:08Shot was a target, bravely blocked away.
01:16It's a good surge.
01:19Oh, it's in!
01:20The USA score early again.
01:24And it's another own goal.
01:27The USA force an own goal to take the lead.
01:31It's USA 1, Australia 0.
01:34Down that channel.
01:35It's an excellent run.
01:36And it's a really good ball into a dangerous area.
01:39Pepe's waiting for it.
01:41It doesn't arrive to him.
01:45How do Australia respond to this?
01:49Italiano's done well.
01:51Pellupille.
01:53Trying to set it up for Lecky.
01:56Rose, and he should have done better.
01:57He does arrive well into the box.
02:03Robinson.
02:051-0 is bad enough for the Socceroos if USA had made it 2 there.
02:11Down goes McKinney.
02:13And this time it's going to be a yellow card for Jordan Boss.
02:23I think he's a little unlucky.
02:25Sticks his hand up to try to block McKinney off.
02:27Does catch him in the face.
02:32Mohamed Touré back helping out the defence.
02:34He's got an awful lot of ground to try and make up here.
02:36Freeze has come way out of his penalty area.
02:39And he wasn't going to take any chances there.
02:41Initially, he hesitated.
02:42He wasn't sure that the ball was going to reach him.
02:45He's got three of the centre to aim for here.
02:48Good delivery from Lecky.
02:49That's the most pressure really the USA have faced.
02:53Barring that Touré effort.
02:55Straight up Matt Friess.
02:59Terrific defending.
03:05Okay.
03:07USA, what a free kick.
03:08Referee reaches for his pocket again.
03:11Well, the USA are too sharp.
03:14Too good for Australia in these opening stages.
03:25Richards.
03:28Heavy clash there.
03:30Freeman and Paul Okanengsha.
03:32They both hit their eye on the ball.
03:34But a clash of hits between the pair of them.
03:41Oh, what a lovely flick that was.
03:43And he's in here.
03:44Dest.
03:45Oh, he did well not to go down.
03:46Some would have taken a tumble in the penalty area there.
03:49That was electric from Serginho Dest.
03:52And Okanengsha's got to be careful here.
03:54It's a real tussle.
03:56Free kick to the USA.
04:01How close was Cameron Burgess?
04:03He actually got a slight touch on the ball, did he?
04:10Cameron Burgess, who's already scored an own goal, certainly won't want to give away a penalty.
04:15Now, rehearsed move.
04:17Dest might still be!
04:21The flag is up.
04:23It's not going to count for Alex Freeman.
04:30Here we go.
04:34USA fans celebrating.
04:37It's a well-worked free kick to the edge of the box.
04:41To the free man.
04:43Dest has an excellent first touch.
04:47Tell you what.
04:49It might be okay.
04:51The goal, Skara, was not in offside position.
04:55Goal is correct.
04:56USA 2.
04:58Australia 0.
05:01The celebrations may be delayed.
05:05But they are delirious.
05:08His reactions are really good.
05:13Bravery to get there ahead of the goalkeeper.
05:16So just to explain it.
05:19Freeman.
05:21Scorer of the US's second goal.
05:24Dest, who's had a great first half.
05:26He's certainly not putting the reins on him.
05:28He's getting forward at every opportunity.
05:33He's getting forward at every point.
05:33Goal kick.
05:42So that is half-time.
05:44Cameron Burgess' own goal set.
05:46The USA on their way.
05:48Alex Freeman was to score the second.
05:52Second game of this World Cup that USA lead at half-time.
05:55Australia, the team from down-under.
05:57But it's the USA, the team on top for now.
06:01USA 2, Australia 0.
06:09So that's the enthusiasm for the USA players.
06:12Jumping the gun.
06:15Here comes Aidan O'Neill.
06:19Against Robinson.
06:21Both appealing the decision should go their way.
06:23But it's O'Neill who's disappointed.
06:24That's a goal kick to the USA.
06:28Moose today, Australia can definitely still go through.
06:32The only slight trick I've seen from Australia
06:34is pushing Leckie and Metcalfe slightly higher up.
06:37But second half continued with USA that little bit sharper.
06:40The interest of the Vizalic team.
06:44Might just give USA something to worry about.
06:47Now, Balogun can't be offside.
06:49He was inside his own house.
06:51Following Balogun and he couldn't get the shot away early enough.
06:56How well does the Australian defender do
06:58to get back and make the challenge?
07:00Just hesitated a fraction too long.
07:03Tim Rehm, who's only ever scored one international goal
07:06in his long career.
07:07Balogun was closest to that one.
07:09And again, there's been a clash of heads
07:11and the referee will immediately hold up play
07:12just to make sure everyone's OK here.
07:17Pepe.
07:19Not the best pass to Robinson
07:20and he was forced to stretch
07:22and he's caught Italiano there.
07:23Play continues for the moment.
07:26But not for the challenge of Italiano.
07:30Yellow card comes out to Robinson.
07:32That's good refereeing from Felix Zvere.
07:34He allowed play to continue
07:35but when the ball went dead for the other foul
07:37he's come back
07:38and shown the yellow card to Robinson.
07:41So that's why the free kick was given.
07:43That was Pepe.
07:44Volpato, first touch, releases Irancunda.
07:48Now, this is the chance he's been waiting for.
07:50Who's with him?
07:52Volpato!
07:54What an introduction that could have been.
07:57And that energy in behind.
08:00Conor Metcalf goes to ground.
08:01I think it's Anthony Robinson, is it,
08:02that brings him down.
08:04Potentially checking a penalty.
08:09Pato, certainly showing an eagerness
08:11to get involved since he's introduction.
08:14Guerrier.
08:17Italiano.
08:19Metcalf.
08:21They've not had a clean sheet
08:22in any of their last nine games, USA.
08:27Metcalf!
08:29Those substitutions, Conor Metcalf,
08:32Irancunda,
08:32the two goalscorers from the first game
08:34on the pitch,
08:35they look a far bigger threat now.
08:39Decided to do it
08:41a fraction after that,
08:42just again,
08:43just to disrupt the momentum.
08:46Good composure under pressure from Robinson.
08:49Balogun and Guerrier
08:51trashing antlers.
08:53Make one more.
08:55Jackson Irvine,
08:56the joint most international goals
08:58in this Australian squad,
09:00along with Matthew Leckie.
09:04It's a clash
09:05with Christian Volpato down.
09:12Here it comes.
09:15Suter trying to leap.
09:19Italiano.
09:21Took a little dink
09:22on the way through there,
09:23but still alive!
09:24Missed by Suter!
09:26Guerrier can't get a clean shot either!
09:28This is the initial effort.
09:38Suter and Balogun
09:39get to the tangle,
09:41and teammates are quick
09:42to come in
09:43and settle that down.
09:45It's been a right old tussle
09:47between the two of them today.
09:50If you're a referee these days,
09:51you really do need eyes
09:52on the back of your head.
09:53Yellow cards are plenty.
09:56Suter's been booked.
09:58Balogun's been booked.
10:01Balogun not looking at the ball,
10:02just jumping into Suter.
10:08It's all become a bit scrappy.
10:10He knew exactly
10:11what he was doing there,
10:11Chris Richards.
10:12The ball may have gone past him,
10:14but Irincunda wasn't.
10:15He is a fan of the ball.
10:19He is a fan of the ball.
10:19He is a fan of the ball.
10:20He is a fan of the ball.
10:20And the referee blows the final whistle,
10:23and the USA have done it.
10:26Two wins out of two.
10:29After beating Paraguay 4-1,
10:32Pochettino's team have now beaten Australia
10:34by two goals to nil.
10:35The stars and the stripes are living up to the hype
10:41USA 2, Australia nil
