1) The United States would advance with a victory over Algeria, which would give it five points. Because England plays Slovenia, one of those teams can’t finish with five.
2) The United States would advance with a draw against Algeria, which would give it three points, as long as England loses to Slovenia OR England-Slovenia ends in a draw AND the U.S. maintains a goal advantage over England. Currently, the U.S. has three goals and England has one.
One scenario could lead to lots being drawn for who advances.
If the U.S. draws with Algeria and England draws with Slovenia, but England scores two more goals than the U.S. does in its last game, the U.S. and England would be even on all tiebreakers for second place.

lol basically.
As long as we win, we are in.
Ideally, We win and England ties, and we make up the goal differential with Slovania....then we will qualify in first

Hopefully England and USA win and whoever scores by more goals will win the group.

Bad/tough breaks happen in all sports, especially soccer (England giving up a goal to the US) but to basically be eliminated from the World Cup because of 2 terrible ass calls that cost you goals, its just a damn shame. Stuff like this is why soccer isnt a major sport in America.

Stuff like this is why soccer isnt a major sport in America. Exactly... Soccer is so ing terrible and this World Cup is going to make it less popular in America (if that was even possible)... And as I'm typing this some American guy just got punched in the face and no red card was given....

I would have been so mad if the US didn't advance. They had so many opportunities during the game that they were not able to score off of.

The US plays the 2nd place team from Group D and England plays the 1st place team from Group D.
