If you are in Switzerland download the FIFA SRF App (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fwc2014.sr...). It lets you watch all the games live the replays and around 10 different camera angles.

The app may be available to other countries under another name as well. I believe the app was created for FIFA and provided as a branded product to the different television networks that paid for access.

Thanks! But I can not install this in my country. By the way, I don't know what they put in 28mb.

yeah - the official FIFA app is 32mb! and the local one in my country is 24mb and it loads all the data from the web everytime you open a screen. I just uninstalled it and used a laptop. Nice transitions though. ;)

exactly! I like FIFA's app but it's so complicated. Too many views are making me feel lost in the app. Plus there is no video highlight as far as I understand.

ESPN Sport Center?

I use http://football-highlight.com/en/. As far as I know ESPN causes issues in different countries. Now, I'm working on covering more leagues. I'd like to keep the app as "football fan", not world cup specific.

I've always wanted an app where I could watch grown men rolling around on the ground pretending to be in agony.
