That’s because NBC, in their infinite stupidity, are breaking for TV commercials in the middle of the game.<p></p>
<p>And just as it routinely happened in the late 1980’s (including the 1986 World Cup when televised by U.S. TV), the broadcast of the game came back to show that a goal had been scored during a commercial.</p>
