The United States and England fought to a goal-less draw in Qatar on Friday night, as America kept hope alive for advancing to World Cup knockout action.

A well organized U.S. team pressed well and frustrated England and could feel disappointed in the end after creating the better chances in the game.

Christian Pulisic rattled the bar with English goalkeeper Jordan Pickford beaten in the first half while Weston McKennie, twice blazed over the bar from promising positions. Team USA also failed to capitalize on a series of corners in the second half.

England created little and there chances were limited. Striker Harry Kane had a shot deflected wide and American goalkeeper Matt Turner saved well from Mason Mount at the end of the first half. Kane also missed a stoppage time header at the end of the second.

The United States, with two points after drawing twice, is in third place of Group B, behind England and Iran which earlier in the day scored a stunning victory against Wales.
