While speaking with ESPN, the United States Men's National Team coach, Jurgen Klinnsmann said: "It couldn't get any more difficult or bigger, but that's what the World Cup is all about. We're excited."

"We don't look at ourselves as any kind of outsiders," he said when asked about the U.S.'s status as the "underdog" team.

Considering Group G appears to be one of the toughest in the tournament, Klinnsmann was asked about his feelings on this draw.

"All of the nations in the world, all the big names, they all deserve to be there," he said. "If you want to get one day in the top 10 in the world you've got to start beating them."

Considering Ghana is the United States' biggest rival in the World Cup tournament, facing them so early on could be harrowing for the team but the coach is confident.

"After two losses, it's time to beat them," he said.

Here is the schedule of games for the United States team:

June 16 vs. Ghana in Natal

June 22 vs. Portugal in Manaus

June 26 vs. Germany in Recife.
