AL RAYYAN, Qatar: If it was Gareth Bale’s final game for Wales, it ended rather unceremoniously. The Wales captain was substituted at halftime of the team’s match against England at the World Cup on Tuesday because of an injury. While it was unclear when Bale was hurt, it appeared he was struggling late in the first half of the team’s final Group B match.

Pulisic's 38th minute goal proved enough for the Americans to advance at the expense of their geopolitical rivals.

Along with the Rashford double, Phil Foden found the back of the net as England outclassed Wales at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium. After a sedate first half, the match came to life when Rashford curled home a free kick from the edge of the area in the 50th minute. An unmarked Foden footed a Harry Kane's cross into the net a minute later. Rashford then inflicted a final blow, finding the net with a shot that went through the legs of goalkeeper Danny Ward in the 68th minute.
