Fans frustrated with the referee during USMNT vs Wales: Funniest memes and reactions

The US national team played againstWales in their debut at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Tim Weah made the first goal of the evening, but despite Gregg Berhalter’s team’s great first half, players weren’t happy with the referee’s decisions, including the overlook of Wales’ possible yellow card actions.

Actually, Sergiño Dest and Weston McKennie were the first players to be given yellow cards just 10 minutes into the match. However, soon after that, Chris Mepham clashed with Christian Pulisic, from pure frustration, and didn’t receive one.
