Win, 3 points
Draw, 1 point
Loss, 0 Points,
We are in a Round Robin with 3 other teams, Germany, Ghana and Portugal. So, it’s a bit like an NFL division, we just need to finish in 1st or 2nd in the group.
Full Table here, we are in group G.

After tonight, there is one game left, Wednesday it will be played I believe.
This is the group stage. 8 groups of 4 with the top two from each group going forward to the knockout rounds. One point for a tie and three points for a win. The US has three points with two games to go. Germany has four and Ghana one with one game to go. Portugal has no points with two games to go.
No. A tie is worth one point. It’s the two best totals among the three games.
