I only saw parts of it was pleasantly surprised.
2) Do Canvas and/or Een broadcast more live matches like that or was this a one-off or something? I thought the rights were sold off to some commercial network as in most of the rest of Europe?
The national network just regained the rights to the national competition and the braodcast one every week. Next week it's Standard Luik (current leader) Vs err..no idea
Of course the lost the CL rights so next year the commercial networks will handle it.
At the moment you can still CL games though. (Bugger is of course that we still have teams in it (with no chance in hell), so expect all games to feature either Brugge or Anderlecht.
3) WTF is up with those camera angles? Does panoramic view get it on for you guys or what? Couldn't distinguish individual players most of the time, and that's coming from someone with a ridiculously large TV...
This seems to be a trend, no idea who came up with that. Previous seasons I got irritated by all the close ups which destroyed the "tactical" view and we get this.
Not a national thing though, I've seen elsewhere too.
BTW: Am I the only one not happy with those computered generated boards on each side of the goal?
No comments on Arsenals penalty btw? Oh and it was not Cruijff who come up with it but Rik Coppens!
