I was following the match on the Guardian Minute by Minute as well. They lost the signal completely in England. They also had people e-mailing in from all over the world as well saying that they too had lost signal. I wasn’t relying on ESPN. I was following the match on the Guardian Minute by Minute as well.

i really wish there was a way to know if the whole international feed was f’ed or if it was just ESPN, any international readers out there?

The feed was out around the world, not just ESPN.

Wow, he just pulled a soccer equivalent of breaking someones ankles (tearing a defender's knee ligaments?) on the first run he made before he got it back. The Turkish defender just fell in a heap. watching the replay of the last goal by Lahm.
