World Cup Coverage
No, not a whine post about the BBC's match summarisers. If you, like me, are spending time working in the office when you would rather be devouring the feast of football offered up by the likes of Argentina (currently boosting my world cup fantasy football team score with a thorough-going dismantling of Serbia-Montenegro), then I have found the very best of the live coverage sites. It is at ESPN's Soccernet, and is a ridiculously competent piece of flash programming, with live coverage of plays, minute-delayed full commentary, indivudal stats on all players, a full game log... even pictures of the latest player to do something notable and flashing markers on a pitch to show ehere shots and goals were taken from.
You can get to it by going to their main page during matches and following the "Follow the Game - LIVE!" link (currently below the main headline picture, but it moves about). It is also headed "gamecast" under any game showing on the front page.[+] -->
