Looks to me like ESPN+ doesn't offer the re-streaming of games like "Watch" but does offer periodic replays of games. Whether or not they replay our game is anyone's guess.

The new ESPNplayer for Europe seems very similar to the old watchESPN with a replay section. Hoping to find the ponies there Sunday morning!

Just tried to use my ESPN watch app said it is no longer functionable to download the new ESPN app which is actually better.

ESPN+ has everything that Watch had. But now you get to pay for it.

I’m really annoyed that all the streaming-only games that I was previously able to access through my cable subscription are now behind the espn+ paywall. Sure it’s only $5, but I’m already paying through the nose on cable. Ugh...

And the announcers on ESPN+ coverage are terrible. Do they just use local announcers for games like this? The color commentator is completely useless and comes across like a huge Arky St homer.

Enormous homer. So annoying.

Ok, so do we cancel ESPN+ now? I didn’t see any other games on it per the schedule they showed.

Actually, was really impressed with the streaming presentation, was very nicely done and no buffering or technical glitches.

Biggest plus though, that old coach that did the color commentary, sure sounded like Norm Hithges, even laughed like him!
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!

Listen to the game on the Ticket app. Watched stats on the game tracker. Didn't see what happened but had a good flavor of the game. Alas, I'm elderly and enjoy radio game presentations. Thus, I'm biased. But saved a miniscual amount of money.

Any idea how long after the end of the game it took for the reair to be available?

I listened to the Ticket and watched on ESPN+. TV game announcers were the worst I've ever heard. Funny though how the sync would get off after commercials, audio would jump ahead one time then the video would jump ahead the next. Constantly have to re-sync by adjusting ESPN+ video.
