What happened
Both teams came out with nerve, which is to be expected on such a big stage. Myanmar began the scoring in the 9 minute United States goalkeeper Zack sang a cross allows yan Naing OO was looking for to get on loose ball fall and hit it in the net. Representatives of the Asian Football Confederation has very little international footballing pedigree, but showed a unexpected confidence on the ball.
It has the United States a quarter of an hour finally found their legs and in this game. Lemur large offset in the 18th-minute after Cameron Carter-Vickers history professor found, open the striker at the back post header. They continued to control the game on the road in half-plane.
After Kellyn Acosta wasted a glorious chance the United States providing leadership, they found only a few minutes later go-ahead goal. Rubio Rubin was in the room with a chance to counter in the 56th minute. He could get his patience during the break Emerson Hyndman strips into the box to find. The American captain took a touch quiet and safely stopped the Myanmar goalkeeper.
The United States had in some ways of the game, but could not take advantage. U-20 World Cup Myanmar pushed late in an attempt to compensate, but the defence held strong. It was not as easy as most thought, but all you can ask is three points in an opening match in the World Cup.
Quick thoughts U-20 World Cup New Zealand Myanmar's collective technical ability was very impressive. Their quickness and sharp touches it was difficult early for the United States.
Maki is great first touch quality and he is willing to take 1 V 1 defender. He was the most dangerous American attacker in his 49 minutes on the field.
Rubin result does not, but he had an assist and probably would have two more with better equipment. He is clearly one of the most talented player on the roster.
Gemma Zelalem was to play the match with half an hour. For most of us was there the first extended action have we seen of him. As announced, he is calm and confident on the ball with the ability to find a precise pass. His lack of physical strength was at times palpable.
Steffen is cursed for his early error, but otherwise he looks confident and commanding infrastructure in its box. We will mark his mistake as early nerves.
Acosta had a surprising start at left back. He was sometimes shaky, but late in the game was a haven of tranquillity.
The defensive pairing of Miazga and Carter-Vickers Middle protruded above the Myanmar players almost to their disadvantage. The referee punished both unfairly for so much bigger and stronger than the enemy attackers.
Joel Sonora has in the midfield lose possession repeatedly abused and get thrown at any time to the ground he got in the vicinity of defenders. Zelalem replaced it was a recognizable difference.
Shaq Moore lacks the technical side of the game, but to put a solid defensive shift with important interceptions in critical areas of the field.
Overall, it was an average performance by a team victory expected. There is much room for improvement, but the individual talent is there.
