It's just not the same as watching it in a proper pub though! (For those not living

ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, UNIVISION.

They will be broadcasting most of the games live, but unfortunately they are mostly
between midnight and 7 AM CST. Their web sites have the full broadcast schedule.

What all this about the USA being ranked #13 in the world? How did they work that one
out? They're 1 behind Germany!

I would bet a lot of money that they won't. Copared to the rest of the world the US
