USA coach Berhalter 'proud' of England draw

USA coach Gregg Berhalter was "proud" after their 0-0 draw with World Cup opponents England.

The USA impressed against the Three Lions and arguably had the better chances with Christian Pulisic smashing a strike against the crossbar in a gripping affair at the Qatar World Cup.

They secured a shutout against a team that hit six past Iran in their Group B opener Monday but with two points from two games Berhalter warned the "work is not done".

"I think both teams worked hard, both teams gave each other difficulties at times and all in all pleased with the effort," former Crystal Palace defender Berhalter said postgame.

"Any time you can get a shutout in a World Cup it's a good thing.

"I'd like to see goals on set-pieces.

"We're proud but our work's not done. We have to win on Tuesday.

"We know five points get us in and we have to focus on the five points."
