I can guess some words, but sometimes they're not that obvious. I have to ask Chris (he's my dictionary when I'm too lazy to check it online) to know the meaning in that case.

Actually, Japanese people are so crazy about that. They gather at cafe, bar, stadium and other places when the game is going on. Yesterday (the day before yesterday?), they gathered those place, even if the game start at 4 o'clock in the morning, at Japan time.

But you know theb result...

I haven't watched spanish channels though yesterday while france was playing against Togo russian sport reporter was sitting next to (I bet) his spanish collegues! When Henry stroke second goal our reporter kept silent while somewhere from the background spanish ones were yelling gooooooooooooal for 15 seconds I guess! They are times more active during the match! :o

Yeah, it's amazing how they can talk through the whole match. It's 90 minutes of reporting right there. And they yell repeated words for about 30 seconds or something. I like their enthusiasm.

If you are so amazed with that thing you have to hear them during the year (the Spanish League) because they do the same!!! In fact, there are a lot of Spanish people that watch the football match on TV without voice and put the radio on to hear the radio reporters voice, specially the program "El carrusel deportivo" of the Ser channel, they are very, very, very enthusiastic!!!! :lol:
