But I've been watching soccer tournaments for years and it's pretty routine. Some teams have to travel farther between games, and some teams have shorter rest periods. Unlike a lot of bad things the US is doing to the a World Cup, this one seems like it happens everywhere.

Sat June 13th, 9pm Pacific Time

And USA v. Paraguay is Friday June 12th 6pm Pacific Time,

So it's one day difference, not 2 - 27 hours to be precise.
