Set the clock for 2 pm ET on ESPN 2.

They are going to show all the good plays from Match Day 1 and 2. Its listed as an hour show.
Features the regular cast of Press Pass(just quoting Derek Rae during the Sporting game). Just wondering how can that be, I thought Press Pass was a debate show not highlight driven.

This show was on ESPN2 last year as well. It was mostly highlights not a lot of discussion/debate.

Actually was not at all like the show last year. There were 3 people involved.It did have lots of bite and good talk.
Can I say that ESPN finally treated soccer the way it does other sports. This show was just like any other ESPN show.
It is definitly worth a a watch. Even has the top 5 goals of the days isolated in a segment. Derek Rae did a great job of getting all the stuff out there that you want to see.
Looking forward to the next edition.
Davied goal was the best by far. AC Milan goal was well set up . I did not see it at the time Manchester united did a good job of setting up Ronaldos goal.

Totally agreed, really enjoyed the show. Hard not to enjoy highlights though with the level of play in Champions League...

Also, not sure about you guys, but I'm at work during the matches, so I checked out ESPN360.com...they have some of the matches live and the quality was pretty damn good. It was sweet to be able to see 3 different matches during the day....sure beats actually doing work...
