USA Advances to Knockout Round Despite 1-0 Loss to Germany
The United States suffered a 1-0 loss to Germany in a hard-fought final group stage game, but thanks Portugal’s 2-1 win over Ghana, the US team will advance to the knockout round.
The Germans, three-time World Cup champions, finished with seven points, while the U.S. had four after allowing a 95th-minute goal against Portugal on Sunday in a 2-2 draw. Portugal also had four, but the Americans advanced from the so-called “Group of Death” because their goal difference was even and the Portuguese were minus three.
Germany won Group G, and Portugal and Ghana were eliminated.
