It’s the two best teams in the world, I certainly hope it would be.

Yeah, it's frickin' awesome.

I love how neither is just dogging it hoping to get to PKs. They're both going for it and it's really fun.

How did you get that?

360, but it's flawed. After a few minutes they go back and forth between live and highlights and it's offputting, so eventually I just went with the normal dummycast and ignore the announcers as best I can.

I couldn't get the "tactical" cast, whatever that is, to work at all.

Every sportscast should have a way to mute the announcers channel without losing ambient noise.

There was a way to do that with the olympics a couple cycles ago. If you unplugged or muted the center channel on your receiver, it completely pulled out the announcer feed from the audio. Worked for like two or three days then NBC "fixed" it. Maybe it was the World Cup. I can't remember exactly. Actually, I think it was Rio 2014.

Either way, it was INCREDIBLE.
 
Re: World Soccer XXIX: Pro/Rel USA! just kidding!

Here's the explanation:

Match 360 (before & after the match) – A behind-the-scenes look two hours before each match kickoff that chronicles everything from team bus arrivals to warm-ups before the match

Tactical View (during the game) – Positioned high above one of the goals, this view shows all 22 players on the pitch and reveals the shape of the offense and defense of both nations; at the end of the match, coverage switches to on-field post-match interviews, followed by both team press conferences

So the reason 360 failed during the match was it is only a highlight package. Tactical should have worked, it did right up until kickoff but then died on me.

But I actually am really enjoying the ordinary cast. The announcers aren't very jingoistic, they only had one quick sideline report that was easily muted, and the y have just fantastic camerawork -- best I've ever seen for footy.

I can't even get the regular video to play. Just keeps giving me an error.

Lots of clean steals. Does defense develop faster than offense?

My goodness they have been getting outplayed badly for quite some time. It's a miracle France haven't leveled yet.
