This Is Life or Death, America: Live From USA vs. Ghana

Welcome to what is likely the most important World Cup game in Team USA history -- its opening game in Group G, otherwise known as the Group of Death. With matches against powerhouses Germany and Portugal coming up, this will be America's easiest game in the tournament -- and it's against old rivals Ghana, who knocked the USA out of the cup in both 2006 and 2010.

We're live from 5:30 p.m. ET, with Mashable's roving sports reporter Sam Laird on the ground in Brazil, and our teams in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles standing by to bring you updates, commentary, tweets, Vine videos and GIFs from the game. Join us as we find out if this is the USAMT's moment to shine.
