BREAKING Team USA defeats Iran 1-0 to advance to the knockout round of the World Cup for the first time since 2014
DOHA, Qatar — Christian Pulisic scored while crashing headfirst into the goalkeeper in the 38th minute and the United States advanced to the knockout round of the World Cup with a 1-0 win over Iran on Tuesday in a politically charged rematch of their famous meeting a quarter-century ago.
Iran finished third with three points. The team has failed to advance in all six of its World Cup appearances. Raucous Iranian fans with horns and drums in the crowd of 42,127 filled the lower bowl behind one goal at Al Thumama Stadium and were far louder than the red-white-and-blue U.S. supporters at the other end and behind the American bench.
