For Team USA, the next three days will be more of an annoyance than anything.
The games against Tunisia and Nigeria are not going to be competitive, and the challenge will be staying as sharp and fresh as possible. The betting line for Tuesday’s game is an incredible 56 points.
One hazard of being American in a city five hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time — you must work late. Tipoff for the games Tuesday and Thursday is 10:15 p.m. local time in London.
So if any sightseeing is to be done, the next four days are the days to get that done.
