Gareth Bale stole the show as the former Real Madrid cancelled out the United States’ lead, producing another memorable moment for his country after scoring Wales’ first World Cup goal since 1958.

But Chelsea’s stars, Christian Pulisic and Etham Ampadu also influenced the game. Same holds for George Weah’s son, Timoy Weah.

He may not have been heavily involved in all facets of the game but he has popped up again when it mattered.

Wales Ratings

WAYNE HENNESSEY – 6

Did well to stop Joe Rodon from firing past him from close range with a great reaction stop, but could do nothing to prevent Tim Weah’s first half strike.

Other than that, his distribution was poor with ball on deck, not that he touched the ball much in the second half.

BEN DAVIES – 6

Tried his best to keep things ticking along from the back to no avail.

Was then inches away from giving Wales the lead with their best chance, a diving header tipped over the bar by Matt Turner.

JOE RODON – 6

Almost headed the ball past his own keeper but for an incredible reflex save by his keeper to stop Tim Weah’s volleyed cross diverting in.

Was a more calming presence after the break, but by then it was too late.

CHRIS MEPHAM – 5

Looked a bit out of his depth trying to stop Christian Pulisic dominate play down Wales’ right, and ended up copping a booking for a shirt-tug on the Chelsea man.

Mepham arguably should have done more to then stop Pulisic as slipped in Tim Weah.

CONNOR ROBERTS – 6

Sent out as a wing-back, he ended up being camped in his own half struggling to venture up field to spark any sort of threat.

Whipped in a few inviting crosses later on with little to no targets to pick out.

ETHAN AMPADU – 7

Stopped a few American counter attacks with some timely challenges in midfield, and was arguably their best player on the pitch for large parts.

But looking at Wales’ performance as a whole, that is not saying much.

AARON RAMSEY – 5

The ex-Arsenal man’s silly errors and clumsiness on the ball ensured Wales struggled to get a grip on proceedings throughout the first half.

Continued to foil Welsh attacks for heavy touches straight after the break. An off night all round for one of their Euro 2016 heroes.

NECO WILLIAMS – 6

Worked hard but to no avail, and was left chasing Tim Weah’s dust desperately trying and failing to stop him converting his effort.

Was given license to roam forwards more with time ticking away, and did more than most to help grab an equaliser.

HARRY WILSON – 4

Pretty anonymous in a floating wide role, and many were surprised to see him emerge from the tunnel for the second half.

He did little to prove his manager right, seemingly drifting through the contest until his injury time subbing.

DAN JAMES – 5

Was supposed to provide Rob Pages’ men with pace and a threat on the counter through the middle, but failed to do either.

Still, his half-time subbing felt harsh, and could have offered more with the right service given the chance to do so.

GARETH BALE – 8

Barely influenced the match in the first 45 minutes, and his frustrations were evident as he came deep to win a tackle only to receive a harsh booking.

Looked equally as lethargic in the second half, with nothing he tried coming off, but showed nerves of steel to fire in the late equalising penalty.

USA Ratings

MATT TURNER – 6

Could have gone and stood in the desert for the first 45 minutes and still not had a shot fired at him, let alone ripple his net. Had no chance with the penalty, however.

SERGINO DEST – 6

Picked up an unnecessary yellow card early on for a lunge on Neco Williams, but went on to play his part in an impressive defensive display, especially under pressure in the final stages.

WALKER ZIMMERMAN – 4

Was having one of the more comfortable nights of his international career, only to give away a clumsy penalty on Gareth Bale. Ultimately cost USA the win.

TIM REAM – 7

Despite his tender years and 14-month absence from international action, he looked right back at home. Not that the Fulham defender was tested much by the Welsh forwards.

ANTONEE ROBINSON – 7

Flew up and down the left wing at will, causing Wales’ back five all sorts of issues, and was a nuisance in the tackle all night long.

YUNUS MUSAH – 8

Played well beyond his 19 years in a midfield three, driving forward with composure. Wales could have done with someone like him in their ranks.

WESTON MCKENNIE – 6

Another player to get cautioned with a silly challenge that left him stepping on eggshells, but showed maturity to stay composed come through that.

TYLER ADAMS – 7

The youngest captain for USA’s men at a World Cup, he led by his actions, covering every blade of grass across and dictating the tempo.

CHRISTIAN PULISIC – 7

Everything good about the States came down the left through the Chelsea winger, darting around Welsh defenders before teeing up Tim Weah for the opener.

TIM WEAH – 8

Almost forced Joe Rodon into an own goal after finding some space down the right, yet made no mistake one-on-one with Wayne Hennessey just before the break.

JOSH SARGENT – 7

Missed glorious chance with header at near post inside 10 minutes, and did a lot of the donkey work that will perhaps go unrecognised leading the line.
