USA vs. Portugal, 2014 World Cup: Kickoff time and TV schedule
How to catch the United States and Portugal on TV.
Kevin C. Cox
Following their 4-0 defeat at the hands of Germany, Portugal are in rough shape. They need to avoid a loss on Sunday against the United States to stay in the World Cup, and they'll have to do it without some of their best players. Pepe and Fabio Coentrao are out for sure, while Cristiano Ronaldo is nursing a knee injury and a handful of other players are questionable.
USA-Portugal preview
The United States are in a surprising position to advance to the knockout stage of the competition with a win. If the game ends in a draw, Portugal will need a win and some help on the last day to go through, while the United States can clinch with a draw against Germany or by beating a Portugal-Ghana winner on goal differential.
Jurgen Klinsmann also has some injury issues to deal with. His biggest one is at striker, where he has to find a replacement for Jozy Altidore. He's also dealing with knocks to Matt Besler and Alejandro Bedoya, though both should be fit enough to at least make the bench, if not start.
