Question: Soccer bars in midtown

What are some places to watch World Cup matches in midtown, NYC?

I'm planning on watching games during lunch while I'm at work. I work on 43rd street and 6th Avenue. What are some good bars or restaurants that show soccer in the area?

West 46th between 5th and 6th, known as "Little Brazil," might be a good block to look at. (I hear Brazilians are somewhat fond of soccer.)

You might try Heartland Brewery across from Radio City (or the one on 43rd near Broadway). .

Wait, I'm not sure if they closed that Heartland on 43rd or not, but couldn't you go over to 42nd St and go to the frigging ESPNZone? I'm pretty sure one of their million TVs will be tuned to World Cup action.

Wait, you were *in* that previous thread. Sorry, I didn't realize your question was that localized. But there a couple of lists linked there that might help.

Yeah, sorry. I'm looking for a place within a couple blocks since I'll be going during my lunch break. ESPNZone seems like it might work...

OK, I called the ESPNZone in Times Square and their production department said they are going to show every match. They don't have a schedule on their website, but if you check out the viewing schedule beforehand you should be good to go.
