2022 World Cup: Wales 1-1 USA:  Bale’s penalty salvage a draw for Wales in first World Cup game after 64 years 

Gareth Bale rode to Wales’ rescue once again as the captain’s late penalty salvaged a draw against the United States in his country’s first World Cup game for 64 years.

Wales were listless and overrun in a first half dominated by a vibrant USA team, who led as Tim Weah finished smartly after a surging run and pass by Christian Pulisic.

The half-time introduction of striker Kieffer Moore revitalised Wales, whose newfound energy and purpose turned a one-sided affair into a genuine contest as Ben Davies and Moore both came close to equalising.

Then with nine minutes left, the hitherto anonymous Bale was clattered in the box by Walker Zimmerman before confidently whipping his penalty into the net to send the travelling Welsh supporters behind that goal into raptures.

Wales finished the game strongly, buoyed to have secured a point on their long-awaited World Cup return when they had appeared to be heading for a defeat which would have left them staring at an early exit from the competition.

Instead, Robert Page’s men will return to the Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium on Friday to face Iran thrashed 6-2 by England earlier on Monday knowing that victory would give them a chance of progressing to the second round.

Wales conclude the group stage against England a week Tuesday but thoughts of that game can wait as they savour this fightback and the good it will do for their hopes of extending their World Cup adventure.

This was a seismic moment for Wales, not only in a footballing sense but in a broader historical context for a nation which has never enjoyed the global attention that comes with a modern-day World Cup.

No country had waited as long between a first and second appearance at the tournament as Wales had done with their 64-year absence, a barren spell littered with painful tales of near misses.

But Wales are now in the midst of a golden era, ending their 58-year wait for a major tournament by qualifying for Euro 2016 where they reached a historic first semi-final and backing that up by reaching the second round of Euro 2020.
