Team USA fans have labelled Gregg Berhalter as 'insane' for leaving attacking star Gio Reyna on the bench against Wales and accuse him of 'blowing a win on the biggest stage' following the team's 1-1 draw in Doha.
Timothy Weah, a son of former FIFA Player of the Year and current Liberian President George Weah, scored after a pass from Christian Pulisic in the 36th minute to break the deadlock for the Star and Stripes, considered as the second youngest team in Qatar.
Back in the World Cup after missing the 2018 tournament, the US appeared headed to victory before Walker Zimmerman plowed down Bale from behind with the Welsh star's back to the goal in the 82nd minute.
