<description>&lt;p&gt;Hey bthirsch,

Sorry, Thrillist only had room for one Argentinean place in the piece. However you might try Boca Junior Argentinean Steakhouse 81-08 Queens Blvd Elmhurst, New York  (718) 429-2077. It&apos;s a little far out, but it&apos;s the home of the actual Argentinean fans, and a decent steakhouse, too. Also, we think Maradona&apos;s Piano Bar 188 Allen St. (917) 627-6412 might be a good place to watch Argentina, but I couldn&apos;t confirm that it was still open--I&apos;m a terrible intern. Hope that helps, bthirsch.
-Greg, thrillist.com Intern

<description>&lt;p&gt;Anyone know if the games will be on UniVision or Telemundo like last time?  Despite the fact that I don&apos;t speak Spanish, the broadcast was so much better.

Also, I get Telemundo and Univision for some reason but not ESPN2, so that helps.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
