The 2014 World Cup is shaping up to be a good one for the United States men's national soccer team – a win over Portugal on Sunday would make it a great one.

The teams' second match in Group G will be pivotal in determining which two squads advance to the knockout round. A win would guarantee the US moves into the win-or-go-home phase, while a loss or draw would keep the group a four-team race.
