All I know is the the announcer - O'Brien - has only done six (6) soccer games in his life, before his World Cup experience.
ESPN/ABC could have had a knowledgeable announcer who would be able to explain the offside call to new viewers, and get into some strategery such as there is. BUT NO! They wanted an "American" voice instead of an English, Scottish or Irish accent - broadcasters who've done hundreds of games.

A curse be upon O'Brien's mustache and the rest of the Disney crew. I'm so mad at the coverage I could spit. There is no international sporting event that American broadcasters cannot ruin.
