Here's Exactly When — and How — You Can Catch the USWNT's World Cup Games

As the FIFA Women's World Cup gets under way, the US Women's National Soccer Team is, without a doubt, the team to watch. They're the defending champions (relive their exhilarating 2015 victory here) and the top-ranked squad in the world, making them the favorites to take home the title again. They've moved on to the semi-finals as the top-ranked team in the tournament and are set to face England on Tuesday, July 2, at 3 p.m. Eastern/12 p.m. Pacific.

The bracket is getting thinner as more and more teams get knocked out. Japan, who beat the US in the 2011 World Cup Final but lost to them big-time in 2015, was beaten by England, the team the US will face in the semis. The No. 2 ranked team, Germany, hasn't won since 2007 and are hungry for the prize. They're still in it, getting ready to play Sweden in the quarter-finals. And France, the hosts who beat the US 3-1 in a January friendly, just fell to the Americans in a hugely-anticipated quarter-final. Here are more fascinating storylines to watch, straight from ESPN soccer analyst and USWNT legend Julie Foudy, plus the top 25 players to watch.

Here's the US's record so far in the tournament, plus kickoff times for their upcoming games, because you're not gonna want to miss a minute.
