here Belgium''s popularity index went down hill like those quotes at the stock-market, ha ha ha.
hey,
soccer is a sport which includes a lot of tactics, those smart germans know that and play that very well since a very long time i guess, lol.
i love the Brazilian's gameplay and saw them over the decades countless times live at tourneys, but if you watch 'em carefully you will find out that their important games are not played good looking Brazilian style, then even they play their tactics and the better they adapt the better their results.
they are my #1 fav for the Cup.
will have to see how Italy starts to put them on a spot and of course England today, til now England is not ranking very high on my list, Germany should walk into the half finals, Argentine will be on in 1hr, didn't see a game of them since a while, so i can not put them in a ranking, yet.
France played extremely bad yesterday, Portugal is always good for great games.

Baseball is a nice game to play, throw some balls on a beach or during a Biker weekend, but hey, to watch it is as boring as a Golf Tournament, ole and by far overpaid not very sportive men trying to hit a ball, lol.
Basketball and Icehockey and american Football are by far more interesting to watch as a spectator.

but that's of course just a German Soccer Fan's point of view, he he

Go Germany GO
Mike

btw,
my tip for this afternoon is a 2:1 victory for the US Boys over England,
and aside of my dominican wife i will be the only non-british watcher here at my place for the game. let's get the bats ready, ha ha

I thought the game was going to be on ESPN but it appears that they think womens skiing is far more exciting. I dont have sky at home just bog standard cable, a few people coming over and now i am worried i wont even see it!!

Does anyone know if it will be on any of the Cable channels?!?!?!

On the schedule for ESPN it says it will be showing womens skiing at 2.30Pm?? Have they said they are going to show the match?

Fox Sports are doing alot of talking but i still dont know if they will actually show the full game?

UK vs. USA is on ABC, not ESPN. It may be on ESPN Espanol also, but in English it is on ABC.

they say ABC, on the screen it shows on bottom ABC and on left top where you see the actual standing and teamnames and time of the match is says ESPN, it is in cabeza de Toro basic cable TV channel 30, and it is also the rest of the year ESPN on that channel. and it is always in english.
til now i saw every match of the Cup on that channel and they announced that coverage for the england usa game will start 1:30PM here and the game itself 2:30PM here on that channel.
now that the soccer match ended the channel shows on the screen on top and on the right button ESPN as the channel ID letters.
such may vary from area to area, i don't know, i have only one cable connection.
surf your cable channels til you find ESPN Sportscenter, that's what they have on right now, taling about the Lakers and Celtics game, on the bottom line it reads ESPN back for live soccer coverage england-USA 1:30PM.
good luck surfing

ABC owns ESPN. Sometimes you will see the game on ABC with an ESPN logo. This game I believe will be one of those. However in the DR it could be on ESPN also, but it is on ABC for sure.

o.k., that can be of course.
i am not that familiar with the ownerships of those companies.
right now they repeated:
live coverage of the game on ABC, correct,
and the show whic is on and brings that ABC live coverage is named ESPN SC, Sportscenter-live.
maybe you find that one on a channel on Higuey cable.
sorry,
i never watched cable in Higuey,
where's Rubio today???,
he is usually knowledgeable about that stuff.
we will soon find out what those US Boys do with a ball when not allowed to touch it with their hands or to hit it with a bat, and to top the complications:
it is played with a round ball, not a easter egg, lolol.
my British friends just called, they will arrive here in a few minutes,
i will stick to my Fanship with the US Team, i bet i will be the only one at my place today, but hey, nothing to loose, beers are cold.
Go Landon Go,
hit that Touchdown ?!?

Mike,

I think you will find that it will not be on channel you have on now. Sportscenter is on ESPN, not ABC. You will get it somewhere though.

All of the games so far have been on ESPN, this is the first one on ABC.

Telemundo has all the games in Spanish, you may have that one. Or ESPN Espanol should have it also.

On behalf of all Americans, I'd like to apologise in advance for the crappy coverage by the American commentators. I want to know if that guy who says GOOOOAAAALLLL!will be on Telemundo...

It's on ABC in the US, ESPN has some kind of college baseball.

Saw on the news today half of all Americans think the US will win the cup. Meanwhile the oddsmakers gives them about a 1% chance. I'll be happy if they make it to the next round.
