ESPN2 is broadcasting a pair of UEFA Champions League Round of 16, 2nd leg soccer matches in high-definition this week. Why is this worthy of a mention? Because most Americans have never seen soccer with this beauty and intensity, certainly not in HD. There’s no comparison. This is why you bought that big screen TV, my friends … to see things you’ve never seen before …
Tuesday’s game between Barcelona and Liverpool pits the winners of the last two European championships in a do or die showdown at Anfield. Wednesday’s game between Lille and Manchester United at Old Trafford promises to be filled with drama. ESPN2 will broadcast the games at 2:30 PM EST.
Can’t get enough Champions League soccer? ESPNCL will broadcast the Chelsea vs. Porto game at 5:00 PM EST on Tuesday and the Bayern Munich vs. Real Madrid game at 5:00 PM EST on Wednesday in standard definition.

nbsp;couchville.com shows:
Liverpool vs PSV - ESPN2HD at 2:30 EST on Tuesday
Manchester United vs Roma - ESPN2HD at 2:30 EST on Wednesday
While the shows on the last go-round were broadcast on ESPN’s HD channel they did not use the full widescreen — for whatever reason, those silly HD black banners ran down the sides of the screen. Did the broadcasts actually qualify as HD or just Standard Definition? :(
Needless to say, I was bummed.

It would be nice if ESPN broadcast at least the Champions league Final on the 23rd in HD. I can’t believe that they do not get a HD feed of the Champions League series! The whole season they have been transmitting the games with black bars on the sides, it’s a cryin’ shame…
