ESPN is showing it. As is Univision, but thats in Spanish.

 

[kulki]

boohoo I wanted to watch the mexico - US game atleast the recorded version. Fscking ABC they arent even gonna show arecorded version of the game this suxs!!!

 

[joohang]

It's about to begin!!!

 

[SirDante]

Sweet, the Irish dude is doing commentary.

Think about it, ABC has little incentive to air a rerun of 1:30 of programming with no commericals. Most people watching already knowing the results.

 

[kuk]

Just woke up to the firecrackers here .... Brazil is wide awake to watch this match.
Well, I don't have to say to whom I'm cheering.



... and here it goes!

 

[joohang]

This game has already been breathtaking.

I'm glad that I stayed up.

 

[brxndxn]

Go BELGIUM!!!

Those dumb Brazil show-offs.. I've never before seen a play decide he needs to put special spin on a ball to make a pass.

I also want Belgium to win so US has a better chance. WOO!

 

[joohang]

Brazilian defense showing its weakness already.

 

[joohang]

No goal for Belgium. Referee called a foul.

 

[joohang]

Ouch! @ the Belgian GK.

 

[joohang]

RONALDO!!! SO CLOSE!!!

To borrow the words of the Spanish announcer, "es un toro."

 

[joohang]

Yeah. I was doing the same. Same with the Spanish announcer.

GOOOOO... wha???

Why is it that British and North American announcers never yell "GOOOOOOOOOL"??? They are so boring. A team scores. "Ronaldo! Goal! Fantastic blah blah blah. (followed by awkward silence)" WTF?? No wonder many North Americans think that soccer is boring.

Is this the same with announcers elsewhere?

Looks to me like some of the Korean Red Devils are cheering for Belgium.

 

[joohang]

Second half begins!

 

[joohang]

Wow! You are right. I didn't notice this before, but there surely are a lot of yellow shirts in the crowd! :Q

 

[joohang]

I love the friendly atmosphere of this game. Both teams show a lot of respect to each other.

 

[joohang]

Excellent shot, Belgium! Nice save, GK!

I have a tip for you if you get a replay in your area.

Stop spoiling yourself with the results. Just watch the replay as though you were watching a live game.

 

[joohang]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLL!!!

RIVALDO!!!

1-0 Brazil!!!

 

[AndyHui]

What a goal!

That is true skill and control there.

Pure skill. Fantastic goal.

The deflection from the Belgian player helped, though.
