World Cup Live: on TV, Internet and Mobile Phone

(2010-06-10 14:06:11) 下一个

All 64 games will be broadcast live in HD — 44 on ESPN and 10 each on ABC and ESPN2.

Walt Disney Co. networks ESPN and ABC, which are broadcasting the games in the United States, will stream 54 games live on the newly launched ESPN3.com, formerly ESPN360. The games are free to those in the United States who get their Internet from a service provider affiliated with ESPN, including AT&T, Verizon, Comcast and many others. The 10 games that will air live on ABC won't be available on ESPN3.com, but all 64 matches in the Cup will be available live on mobile devices to customers whose plans include TV on their phones.

Univision Communications has the Spanish-language broadcasting rights in the United States, and it will have games available on Univision.com and Univision Movil.

Many media outlets have launched mobile applications, most of which feature live scores, news updates and some integration with Facebook or Twitter. Among them are apps from Fox Soccer Channel, The Associated Press, Goal.com, Mundial and many others.

Helpful Web site
There’s an extraordinary number of Web sites devoted to World Cup coverage. The ones I will be checking every two seconds include The BBC (UK), The Guardian (UK), The Times (UK), Marca (Spain), AS (Spain), SPORT (Spain), El Mundo Deportivo (Spain), A Bola (Portugal), Record (Portugal), O Jogo (Portugal), La Gazzetta Dello Sport (Italy), Corriere Dello Sport (Italy), O Globo (Brazil), Clarín (Argentina), France Football (France) ESPN (USA), and Goal.com (USA). Another cool site? Zonal Marking. It discuses tactics and whatnot. Highly recommended for the soccer wonk in your life.

Two ProTips:Try Roja Directa and Iraq Goals.

Radio/Podcasts
Sirius XM has all the games of the World Cup live. I will also be using the Android App during E3 to listen to games live. Ron and Fez (11am-3pm, weekdays) are also all over the World Cup, so do yourself a favor and tune in. I will~! (Also: Join their World Cup bracket.)

The Guardian has a podcast, World Cup Daily, that will absolutely be worth downloading. It’s free.
