Today is day five at the World Cup soccer tournament in Brazil, but it will be day one for the American men as they will see their first action this afternoon against Ghana (5:00 PM CT, ESPN).

Group G consists of Team USA, Ghana, Portugal, and Germany. Many feel that today's matchup against Ghana will be USA's best chance to accumulate the precious points needed to advance into the next round, but Ghana's no pushover. Germany is a perennial powerhouse, and Portugal very strong. Germany and Portugal are playing each other today.

If you can't get to a TV, you can see the action online (assuming you're a cable or satellite subscriber) at WatchESPN or on your mobile device using the WatchESPN app.
