Right now there are 3 games live on Al jazeera;
Al Jazeera+1 Coventry city vs Newcastle, Carling cup
Al Jazeera+2 Wisla Krakow vs Barcelona, Champion's league
Al Jazeera+3 Artmedia vs Juventus, Champion's league
No one have an english commentary... So do I have to learn arabic?

Do you expect Al Jazeera to broadcast in English? AFAIK it's an Arabic company! 2nd audio track is just a great extra, if there is one.

The question is, if the broadcaster offers English commentary. For the Calcio, they do (but not for all games). For a simple CL qualifier game not.
However, Al Jazeera is nevertheless silly because they only offer English audio and not - for e.g. Spanish audio for the games from Argentina.

Al Jazeera have channel in english "Al jazeera english", i tought they were targetting the english spoken market, like the french sport channel "Eurosport" did with so many different audio tracks. Same thing for the Al Jazeera Sports HD, when do they plan to put this one on hotbird too???

Primera Division last season usually came in with an English commentary (as well as Serie A).

Targetting the English spoken Market These channels should not be visible out of the Middle-East and Maghreb. If they did add English we can suppose it's for the expats in this area of the world and as Qatar, many other ME nations are nations where English is spoken fluently. Eurosport buy rights for the whole Europe. JSC for the whole ME & Maghreb.
