Well i click Purchase and it jsut reloads the same page, click Purchase and around we go again. Tech support button does nothing. Farken. 

I have had the same problem- it's ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC when lots of us can't even buy the matches, let alone get a picture as others have complained.

Just wasted one and a half hours trying every possible way of accessing e-cast and buying coverage with no success (using the different browsers on my computer i.e. Internet Explorer or Google Chrome etc.)

Eventually e-cast was so overloaded that I couldn't access it at all- finally found clicking on the link on the OFC website connected me to it again- but only to find I couldn't complete purchase anyway.

Many similar complaints on OFC Facebook page:

WHICH OFFERS THIS ADVICE:

If you are experiencing technical difficulties please email support@e-cast.co.nz and provide a description of the issue you are experiencing, and provide your contact details.

Thats what i was thinking! Good one OFC for responding to the issue so we can at least see the rest of the game

 

Yes, was a bit shambolic, but respect for the response.

That is the best thing I have ever seen in the history of live football.

 

Building a stand while the match is being played.

 

Thats progress.

We will never fully decide who has won the football.

Shut up Miles, one hand on the ball against the ground equates to possession for the goalkeeper.

Paston off, Gleeson on

Now watching for free- but picture is piss poor and keeps freezing- can't watch on "full screen" as quality is so poor- and that's on a laptop !!!!

Not a good sign we can only score once (from a defender) in an hour...

No, one hand against body or ground is enough (or in the palm of the hand). Read the rules please.

hmmmmm.....

 

I'm pretty sure you have to have two hands on the ball.

 

If the keeper holds it in the palm of their hand, another player is well within their rights to kick it.

Overall, despite the win, a disappointing performance. One of the few positive things I can say is that Paston did well and Gleeson looked very confident and composed.

pleasing result.

 

Very concerning performance. No one should be pleased with that.

How shite was that ref. Let the game be super physical, so Ricki reacted and brought on more physical players only for the ref to get soft and blow everything. Just a little consistency!

We got a win, but in no way did we dominant.  Watch out for the banana skins

Even if the superintendent came from AUgusta National - there's no way a pitch could survive this many games.  You'd really think - at a minimum - two stadiums/pitches would be the minimum requirement for this tournament.

too close for comfort. I thought Gleeson did extremely well. Was expecting an All Whites goalfest leading into this game. They have to pick up
