Default Wisla Krakow v Lazio

So they had a frozen pitch.

How come we got a replay of the last weeks' Liverpool v Auxerre game. Could they not have shown another UEFA Cup game - or were the rights already sold to the other games?

Or - why could they not have shown a Copa Libertadores game in its place?

Geez, showing a Copa Libertadores means that the commentators have to work, as well as the production crew. All Copa games are only produced en Espanol. I am not sure you even have graphics in English.

Showing a taped game from last week means everybody gets a day off.

Don't complain. FSW Canada only replayed the FA Cup between Rochdale and Wolverhampton.

The only channel to watch an UEFA Cup game was RFO on Canadian systems. It showed the 2nd leg of Liverpool x Auxerre, in French.

That's cool enough.

I'm no big Wisla or Lazio fan - I was just hoping they would be able to switch over to a more current game.

But complaining about Fox Sportworld is like complaining about being a topless Jennifer Lopez serving you free Newcastle in a pilsner glass instead of a pint glass.

AFAIK, Fox only owns the rights to Libertadores en Espanol.

I've asked FSW if they planned on ever showing the Libertadores in English, they said no.
