I'm curious what the reaction will be. Obviously, most fans will already know the result, and likely watched it on Fox Soccer earlier today. The lead in to the match was an NFL game, but with CBS broadcasting a new NFL game at the same time, I don't see a lot of NFL fans sticking with Fox.

People who have Fox Soccer or made the effort to find out the result aren't the target audience for this game, it's more about those people who watch every four years but otherwise don't make much effort to watch soccer. It's a game that people get into when they're exposed to it, and hopefully this will increase that exposure.
