MONTREAL — The United States is a win away from a World Cup final, but it feels closer.
Tuesday night’s semifinal clash against Germany at Olympic Stadium (7 p.m. ET on FOX) is more like a final — for both teams — as the winner moves on to the championship match while the loser plays for third place.
It’s the No. 1 vs. No. 2 teams in the world. The most dangerous attack in Germany, a team that’s scored more goals (20) than any other this World Cup, pitted against the strongest defense in the U.S., which has conceded just once.
