U20 World Cup - Television Coverage

[Bristol Rob]

I have so far read that it is going to be shown on Eurosport, but can't see any games listed on the channel.

Does anyone know if it's being shown as a red button service or available to stream?

[WRERE]

You can watch it on FIFA's website

I only have a debit card and PayPal, I assumed they would want payment in a brown envelope... wonder if there is an app for that!

Serious though, thanks for that. Hadn't checked the FIFA website.

[Northern Red]

Yeah, looks like it's just on FIFAs website at present. I suspect BBC might pick it up if England progress to the latter stages.

If anyone else is concerned that they lack a supply of brown envelopes, the games will be available for free on FIFA+.

[CiderCraig]

Nothing on English channels as yet, maybe BBC will pick it up!

This is disappointing, didn't the bbc have all of the games from the u19 euros last summer?

Said on talkSPORT last week that we’ve gone there with a pretty bare squad . Clubs have pulled players out as it’s a tournament outside of the international window. Pathetic if true. Why would clubs block players going in that age group.

Coventry have blocked there’s going because there’s the small matter of the Play Off final, which seems fair enough.

Pitch looks awful.

Is Quansah the lad that was on loan to the Gas?

[Lrrr]

Scott as keeper man feels like a waste at corners 

[Port Said Red]

1-0 Scott to Vale to Scarlett

[Lrrr]

Very good cross and header for the goal, Tunisia defender trying to fake a head injury to get it ruled out 

[Malago]

I’d definitely make Scarlett the Captain.

There is some suspect tackling going in from tunisia lot, and some of them are big lads! Seems like scott was riling someone up on the side while celebrating the goal too?! Wouldnt be surprised if the local support is not with england!

Referee tells Scott to keep off the goalkeeper at a corner, so Scott immediately pushes the defender into the keeper instead.

Worried about the right hand side of that defence, Quansah looks slow and sluggish in possession, already been closed down once being slow to play out. Don't see what Oyegoke adds to this England team other than size and some speed, looks poor with the ball, there's definitely better English U20's in the EFL from what I've seen so far.

It looks like they are playing on Velcro, the ball is gripping on the surface, not what these players are used to and it is spoiling the flow of the game.

[RedRock]

Anybody using an iPad? Can’t get rid of the centred circular blue arrow for some reason. Typical that it’s central midfield where Alex is playing. Maybe it’s an arrow added by Nige to hide Alex from watching scouts.

They've got Norton-Cuffy to come in once Coventry are done in the playoffs, think he played RB in the U19 tournament last year.

We need to get out the group for him to be able to play though, I mean we should but still, there's better RWB's England could have picked as back up

[Port Said Red]

Devine has a similar style to Scott and is wearing 7 which is confusing me at times.

They are playing him quite deep, he's been effective without being spectacular. Hardly made a false pass.

They are all playing in second gear, tunisia not offering a lot, it seems its mostly at walking pace. Scott always neat and tidy and drawing fouls.

Scott is head and shoulders above everyone else.

Pretty poor game tbh.

The ref didn't help by being under the misunderstanding that football is a non-contact sport.

Not impressed by that at all, boring, but thats tournament football in the group stages.

It'll liven up once the knockout games start....hopefully.

[frenchred]

Bloody awful game, awful pitch and awful support

[Port Said Red]

Good win, same time Thursday against Uruguay is a tougher test.

[Open End Numb Legs]

Would be nice to see his quick feet create something near the opposition box but today the ball would have probably just bubbled out of control. Looks like a rugby pitch.

Watched last 5 mins of first half and second half.  Edwards and Cox up there too.

Still too many guilty of over-dribbling…pass and move boys.

[RedRock]

Alex has a decent game imo. Tidy.

Needs to work on his final ball around the box, a little ‘hit and hope’ rather than precision. 

[Open End Numb Legs]

Trouble is it sometimes took 2 touches instead of 1 to get the ball under control and judging the pace on a pass was tough. That makes a lot of difference to a pass and move game. Same for Tunisia, hence they barely created anything. Was it watered? Looked bone dry to me.

Certainly made a difference in their Euro campaign/

He looked calm and assured, looking for a forward pass and to get the England team going. Not that easy as they didn't need to do that much, and because of the amount of control they had in the game, the pace slowed, which didn't help. 
Looking forward to see him against the better sides who are happier to come at us a little more.

I think where you could see the difference was the occasions where he would zip a 20/30m pass through the lines, it would completely change the tempo at times.

Good to see Alex pick up a 'hockey assist' i.e. an assist to the assister. Even if that's not a stat most track in Football!

Believe that he's available after the group stages, same with Lewis Hall of Chelsea. Absolutely ridiculous to pull them from at least half of the tournament when Chelsea have nothing to play for, and they've got about 15 players in each position. Obviously understandable with the players that start week in, week out and have something to play for, like the Coventry boys.

Exactly what I meant about a forward pass, he did it a few times to get us going.
Even his short passes just to keep the ball moving and trying to up the tempo , keeping control and just shifting the defence around. He does look the real deal already.

You can definitely see the difference in his game compared to kids of the same age, who have had so little "proper" football.

He definitely plays that role that people used to call a "quarterback" sitting deep and dictating tempo, but as much of a creative outlet as players playing further up.

It’s recorded as a ‘second assist’ in football
