World Cup Announcing Assignments for June 25, 2014

Just one more day of Group Play after this and then it’s the Knockout Round of 16 on Saturday. It’s going to feel really strange not to have a game on Friday after having at least three games every day since the beginning of this World Cup.

But we still have simultaneous windows for today and tomorrow. On this next-to-last day of Group Play, Groups E and F will be in action. Hopefully, we won’t see a repeat of Luis Suarez biting people.

Once again, ESPN/ESPN2 will carry the action for the English language audience. Univision/Univision Deportes and Galavisión/UniMás will be your networks for Spanish language speakers.

As usual, the times listed below are Eastern.
