    A big thumbs down to the folks respnsible for the Philips MatchTracker at ussoccer.com. I've followed games via this site with mixed results in the past, but never had the misfortune to find the system stuck on the last game. Terribly disappointing - what is the point of MatchTracker, if not to keep fans close to the USNT?

    Anyone with feedback on any experience with MatchTracker, feel free to post.

    Regards-

    Bill

    No feedback because there was no experience.

    If these games aren't going to be on english language TV, they've gotta be available on the net via something like MatchTracker.

    I got the audio from Eurosport, but since it's just the voiceover from a TV feed sans the TV, it's a bit incomplete. They don't call touches or describe the game like a radio announcer would.

    Bottom line, this blew.

    I connected to the USSF Matchtracker with no problems at the start of the second half of USA vs. Brazil. A few of the column headings were leftover from the Turkey match, but other than that, it worked fine for me.

    The last time I tried was at minute 66. Nothing Brazil for me.

    cache

    Used two different computers at my In-laws, where no one has accessed ussoccer since the last time I was here (Jan 2001).

    I have Telefutura and didn't try logging onto ussoccer.com until halftime. There were some odd headers leftover from Thursday (improperly identifying Brazil as Turkey), but for the most-part it looked fine.

    Did Monday's game work out for you?
