there was a sort of pk, and the girl just kept pump faking, and eventually just bounced it under the keeper
Flicking through what else BBC has on offere theres a suspiciously asian looking American woman playing a Canadian in Badminton, A Belgian leading a rowing race, A boxing match between France and Uzbekistan, A cuban women winning a Judo match and finally the sailing stream has a shot of some buildings
and on my tv(fox soccer channel) Turkmenistan thumping Tajikistan 5-0 in something called the AFC

probably gonna wait a little longer at least the likes of Sastre and Kirchen
but Voigt might not feel like waiting and just end up tearing up the group

The cycling commentators go "we'll take a short 6 or 7 minute break to give you the news and we'll be right back"
Does the news start? no. "Welcome live to a random-sport-I've-never-heard-of"
WHAT THE FUCK???
SERIOUSLY?

Same thing here, luckily we have a swedish channel as back up ( even if the commentators know nothing ) |
