Go here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2006/   - see the video link near the top of that page.

But hurry! It starts in under 10 minutes...

I just tested that link - it works! There's some considerable time slippage behind BBC1, on which the game is being broadcast.

They've just played the American national anthem - the czech one is playing right now.... time to get a beer! Cya in 2 hours!

:cool:

Half-time score

USA 0, CZE 2  :cry

Two cracking goals from the Czech Republic. Jan Koller, who scored the first, later stretchered off due to hamstring injury.

The 2nd goal was a dagger to the heart. A blistering 30 yarder into the top corner.

Oh dear. Bad luck, America.

SunKing - how did you watch the game, in the end? Did that link work or not?

On the main WC site there is a  realtime stats window with play by play for live games.

In the first half it looked like the US team didn't really want to be there. They perked up alittle in the second half, too bad they couldn't do anything with it :(

Sucks even worse for that Czeck player. I hope he's not out for the whole Cup.
