Are there any audio/radio options other than fox simulcast? Going to be driving for 6 hours Sunday.

TV broadcasters on the radio is worthless

The games are likely covered on Sirius FC if you have Sat radio. 

EDIT my bad Fox Sports

Thanks.

Yeah, that’s all I could find too.

I swear in prior world cups they had a broadcast specific for radio. TV PxP announcing and putting that on the radio is pointless

we gonna be in a fight v Iran-  they aint no hoes

21 shots.. and we got what, a hand full vs wales?

Yeah 6 shots, 1 on goal with 60% possession. This is where Harry Doyle wonders if that's actually better than scoring in America 

[InkaUtexas 27056]

Holy shit what a nice shot. 

[Captain Ron 13137]

Oh snap, right before the half Ecuador ties it up.

 

Maybe ...

I want to see that call again - I'm not sure that WAS offsides.

[Hawndoh 2409]

Dude was way off side

[Dr. Teeth 5870]

I really don’t understand how teams can stop attacking after one goal with everything we have seen this WC. 

[Captain Ron 13137]

Let me rephrase that - I don't see that as interference.

That was a bullshit call. Once the keeper committed to his right that offsides player is not affecting play at all. That's a garbage call.

Agreed

[Dr. Teeth 5870]

Not sure it actually called down, but ESPN says VAR overturned it. If that is the case, it is terrible. You can at least say that the on-field refs may subjectively think the guy influenced it but video shows differently.

It was a VAR call. There is ZERO that video shows to make that offsides.

The player wasn't interfering with the keeper. If he went left and the ball goes in, sure. But once he jumped right he CLEARLY wasn't influenced by the guy in the offsides position. There isn't anyone one he is influencing. 

[Captain Ron 13137]

This is NOT offsides. This is a terrible call. He does nothing to influence play. Now if he touched it, sure, but I don't see contact.

 

EDIT - and it is not clear who calls it off VAR or the on the field refs.

Ecuador gets it after the half, and that one is on.

Ball don’t lie. Maybe this will get the Dutch attacking again. 

[Captain Ron 13137]

I think the Dutch wanted to defend and counter. But Ecuador has a really nice attack, so they kept the pressure on them.

 

Van Gaal isn't a great manager, hence why they turn off their attack.

Ecuador scored just as many as Argentina in qualifying. They are a good team that will cause problems in the knockout stage if they can beat Senegal.

Holland look asleep playing on cruise control waiting for Qatar.

Qatar officially eliminated 5 days into it lol. Not a bad way to spend $220 billion
