hmm - almost sounds like a 2:45 kick like with the Champion's League. I can't imagine that much postgame banter for a US friendly.

Both TV5Monde and RTPi carried the games last Sat. of France and Portugal, respectively.

Yet...neither one is listed on the channels for tomorrow.

Any news on this?

Setanta Sports USA will have Bosnia vs Portugal live while ESPN Deportes will have it via same-day delay. RTPi does not have U.S. video rights to the match in any language.

Suspect Setanta and TV5Monde swapped French-language rights of the two legs of Ireland-France series so that TV5Monde would have the 1st leg instead of the 2nd leg. Setanta Premium (bars and pubs) will have France-Ireland. There should also be an Internet pay-per-view option available.

Any further news on this? What site? What price? Thanks in advance.

According to the USSoccer.com website, kickoff is scheduled for just after
2:30 pm ET - 2:33 pm ET? - which is why the coverage is scheduled to begin
at 2:25 pm ET on ESPN Classic. They then can have a little pregame show -
show the teams coming onto the field and the anthems etc - before kickoff.

The game will probably end around 4:30 pm ET or so. That will give ESPN
around 20-25 mins to have one segment recapping the Denmark-United
States game and then another segment recapping the WCQ games that
were played today. The final segment will probably have the studio crew
give their thoughts on who will win the World Cup as well as plug that
ESPN2 will be showing the World Cup Draw on Dec 4.
