UPDATE: Added the teams for the round of 16 games for World Cup on Saturday-Monday.
For the first time since last September, we have a HD Sportsman with no NBA or NHL on the schedule. Luckily we have the World Cup and Wimbledon to keep us company for the next couple weeks. The Beautiful Game will enter the round of 16 Saturday, with the USA playing at 2:30 p.m. Saturday or 10 a.m. Sunday, assuming it advances. ESPN2 has Wimbledon covered all week, with NBC picking things up on Saturday. Lots of stuff for the early riser this week. Note that on Tuesday, the 7:30 a.m. World Cup game goes away, replaced by two games at 10 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., respectively. We’ll update the World Cup games when all is decided.
SPOTLIGHT
A must-win game for the USA against Algeria on Wednesday at 10 a.m. (ESPN).
Other World Cup action worth noting:
- Brazil vs. North Korea Tuesday at 2:30 p.m. on ESPN
- France vs. Mexico Thursday at 2:30 on ESPN2
Here’s the rest of the week, big games in BOLD.
