Telemundo broadcast


I’ve tried it. It’s not so bad. Wish they’d put in English subtitles.

I've watched every game on telemundo.




notice that I haven't complained one time about announcing teams or what is said during a match.



I wish they would broadcast CFB and NFL games like this.


Would be so much more enjoyable.

Algerian player just straight up pulls down a Swiss player in the box on that free kick. How is that not reviewed?

Do you only show up in the World Cup threads during close ref calls to say this?

We get it homie, people don't like soccer.


There's not usually anything interesting to discuss.

Honestly, the refs haven't called any of that the entire tournament.


Why start now?

Well, if tech is to follow the letter of the law, shouldn’t the refs be the first ones to do so?

I'm not disagreeing.

But the refs really haven't called pulling an opponent to the ground this entire tournament.


That seemed to be Germany's gameplan the entire first half vs paraguay, and nothing ever got called.



Why expect them to call it now?

I knew I should have bet on Switzerland. They clowned us in a friendly recently. Algeria is one of the teams that advanced because of the expanded field. That would have been easy money.

Swiss have always largely gone unnoticed despite a good record in the WC. Hope they’re able to go farther this round
