Photos: Wales salvages draw in match against US

Al Jazeera  

Wales’s Gareth Bale converted a penalty kick in the 82nd minute to offset Tim Weah’s first-half goal and give Wales a 1-1 draw in the return to the World Cup for both nations. But Walker Zimmerman ploughed down Bale from behind with the Welsh star’s back to the goal, and Bale converted the penalty for his 41st international goal. Bale put his kick to the left of goalkeeper Matt Turner’s outstretched arm for his 41st goal in 109 international appearances, salvaging a point for Wales in its first World Cup match since 1958. “We kept a tie, and now we just focus on the next game.” Next up for the United States is a high-profile matchup against England on Friday, the same day Wales faces Iran.
