A Wales win, an Iran win, or a tie, all have a very different set of realities for the Americans, and there are very good reasons why there is a distinct pecking order of favorable results.
Now, it might seem to go against the entire grain of soccer fandom to root for a draw, but that’s exactly what American supporters should be doing. Celebrate the beauty of a 0-0 score line. If one team puts one in the net, immediately become a die-hard fan of the other, at least until matters are level again.
If Wales and Iran tie, it makes it easier for the USA to survive a loss to England, would make the Americans the instant favorites to top the group if they beat the English, and leaves a string of positive possibilities if they tie. A Wales win sets up a potentially brutal scenario for the USA, because if the Americans later lost to England, matters would be out of their own hands. Even a win against Iran in the third game might be to no avail depending on the result of the England and Wales game.
