Amazing comparing ESPN commentary from then to now. They are really polished now with a mix of (mostly) decent British and US commentators. However you have to love this guy's excitement. The ITV reaction to this great goal was embarrassing.
If Cole was Spanish or Dutch they'd build their whole team around him. Here in England we stick him out on the left or some shit just because he's talented enough to make do. Such a waste.
i know British commentary is better, i watch european soccer, the only reason they're better is British do most of the work on the football and have more experience where as the espn etc have the same commentators for different sports.
@tigerwoods232000 Compare the commentary from this clip and the one from the English version, this dude has more passion when comparing with the ITV dude Clive Tyldsleyy (i hate him so much) get Martin Tyler and Andy Gray on ITV now plsS
no it was a volley buddy, a half volley is when the player strikes the ball at the same time it drops to the grass. regardless whether it bounced before the ball was in mid-air when he struck it. so therefore it is a VOLLEY. COME ON ENGLAND!
No, a half volley is when a player strikes the ball after it boucnes, regardless of when he strikes it. A volley is when he strikes the ball on the full without it bouncing. But this was a volley cause he chested it and struck it without it bouncing.
Nothing wrong with this commentary, try listening to a spanish or italian. They just shout GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLl LLLLLLLLLLll \LLLLLLLLLL ridiculously loud and annoying
Lol, Spanish 'commentators' are the best, similar to portuguese or italians... britanic, irish, french, german... they are fuckin boring, sometimes u dunno when a striker scores the goal... they just say 'Goal', and nothin more. I saw the Eurocup final on Ireland and that was fuckin ashamin...
British* (not Britanic) commentators are the best, usually very professional and unbiased, yet they get excited at great goals like they should. French, German and Italian commentators are often boring, yeah, but at least they don't just shout GOL GOL GOL GOL for 10minutes after ANY goal has been scored, good or shit.
ffs who cares about the commentators every time i see a football video it has stupid comments cant we just talk about the goal instead! btw that was a great goal.
I saw this at a friends place once and Holy Shit! that was a good goal. Just a quick question btw, whos the guy number 21 that goes up and hugs him first?
do you realize that out of 125 countries that are trying to participate and wion the world cup, being a champion of one of the 19 championships is kind of... whats the word....
spectacular? provoking jeaulousy? mmm
AMAZING. you impress me. out of 125 countries, 7 have been world champions. england's one. whats to comp[lain about...
it's a good thing because mcclaren was fired, if we got the draw against croatia we would have gone to austria/switzerland and lost but mcclaren would not have been fired.
Yea.. to the hundreds of morons on here commenting about the commentary.. the play by play guy is normally a hockey announcer and the other guy isn't all that bad. You can't criticize announcers who do football once every four years
Americans should never, ever ever ever ever try doing commentary on footy. They are absolute crap and so obviously don't understand what the hell they're talking about. Morons.
You do realize this broadcast was from ESPN and was meant for an American audience. If I went to England and watched it on the BBC, I wouldn't expect an American commentator.
Never mind we still drew against each other again! We haven't beaten you since 1968 but we still both qualified for the 2nd Round. Although we had poor World Cups overall :-(
