USA defender Matt Besler has been passed fit for his team's encounter with Germany at the World Cup on Thursday after recovering from a hamstring injury.

Despite fears over his fitness, coach Jurgen Klinsmann has confirmed that he is available to face the Germans in Recife.
Besler and his American teammates need a draw tomorrow night to clinch a place in the second round of the tournament.
