I always check the opposing nation’s official site first; it can often give you some leads on whether or not the game will be broadcast in that country. And, lo and behold, the Moldovan Football Federation had this message for all to see — that the Canada-Moldova game would be webcast live via UStream, through the MFF site. I Tweeted it out and was surprised by the amount of retweets, especially by my followers in the West. Like, what time do you people get up?

The Soccer Bowl was offline until about 40 minutes into the first half. The game was supposed to be available to Canadian viewers — and geoblocked in the rest of the world — on UStream, the league’s webcasting partner. But, for NASL, it was yet another case of a stream that was unavailable or of poor quality.
