The U.S. played to a 1-1 draw with Chile on Tuesday night, and the match is actually kind of hard to summarize. It wasn’t horrible. It wasn’t great. We definitely didn't control the game. We were missing Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams and Christian Pulisic came off for reportedly precautionary reasons after a half-hour. We run through the timeline of key events, and pull out a bushel basket of takeaways.
