I've watched every game on Univision. EVERY GAME!

And I don't speak a word of Spanish.

I've replayed the Univision feed (and announcer's call) of the 2 Italy goals in the semi-final about 4 times already.

Almost gives me goose-bumps, and I was actually rooting for Germany (a little).

I admittedly watch some of Univision as well. However, the added value is that they have tons of good looking women on that channel.

ESPN's coverage has been pretty good, considering that they are almost novices at doing so.

Germany played a great game except in the last two minutes. That is the nature of soccer, and you have to be on it every minute - mistakes are punished, and mistakes in the World Cup especially so. Ask the US mens team. It may be that the US will be able to rightfully say that they played the world champion team to a draw. Yes it was an own goal that equalized, but own goals don't just happen. They are generally the result of overwhelming pressure by the opposing team.

ask me about it

Spanish-English translator:

tiro esquina - corner kick
Gol - goal
Penal - penalty kick

That's pretty much all you need to know to watch the games on Univision.

Me too, almost. I watch in Spanish in my own home, but when I watch at a bar or someone elses house, I'm stuck with ESPN/ABC. I particulary detest their graphics which sometimes pop up over where the ball is being played, and always obscure 10% or so of the screen. The stupid commentary can be pretty annoying too.
