I don’t know about you, but I didn’t really believe Alexi Lalas when he appeared on my television set and told me that Fox was "the home for all things El Tri this summer." My sneaking suspicion was confirmed a couple weeks ago when it was announced that the Fox commentating team of Jorge Perez-Navarro and Mariano Trujillo, the guys who’ll almost certainly be calling the Mexico games, wouldn’t even be sent to Russia. They’ll be calling games from a darkened room in Los Angeles.

Fox gave a giant middle finger to all English-speaking U.S. soccer fans on Wednesday. The Fox World Cup coverage will be called almost entirely by announcers in Los Angeles — and in case you forgot, the tournament is being played in Russia. 

Fox, which paid FIFA $400 million for the exclusive English-language rights to broadcast the 2018 and 2022 World Cups in the U.S., couldn’t be bothered to spend enough money to send its announcers to Russia, a huge insult to soccer fans in America.

Spanish Announcers Are Better At Football Than English Announcers And You Won’t Convince Me Otherwise

Football is a sport of moments, of building up to a climax and exploding with joy, relief, anger or sadness. It is in these moments that football announcers show their true worth. But in the debate of English vs. Spanish football announcers we just made up, there is no doubt in my mind who wins.
