at 7 A 6 PM NextWeele ANGEL BUST Daily News Sports Writer When the world's best soccer teams arrived in a skeptical United States last month from all over the world, the general reaction from Pasadena to Pawtucket was: Soccer? Boring. No one here will care. Now, as soccer fans eagerly look forward to Sunday's Brazil-Italy World Cup final from the Rose Bowl (Channel 6, 3:30 p.m.), there is a wider appreciation for the game at its highest level. Jack O'Hara, executive producer of ABC Sports, yesterday proclaimed the World Cup "a huge success. It's beyond anything we ever imagined." Bottom-line TV executives measure "huge successes" by ratings, and the World Cup ratings are a midsummer dream for ABC The 10 games on ABC have averaged 4.7 (one rating point equals 942,000 homes).

The World Cup has outdrawn golf and tennis. Loren Mathews, ESPN's senior" vice president for programming, is as delighted as O'Hara with the World Cup's showing. ESPN's rating for its 28 live World Cup games is 2.2 (one rating point for ESPN equals 631,000 homes). For Sunday's final, ABC plans live remotes from Brazil and Italy. Al Ttautwig will work the sidelines (if he speaks Italian and Portugese, I'm impressed).

Studio host Jim McKay and U.S. National team player Desmond Armstrong also will be at the Rose Bowl. Game time in Brazil will be 4:30 p.m. In Italy, the game will start at 9:30 p.m. ABC's announcing team will be Roger Twibell, "Famous" Seamus Malin and Rick Davis.

Twibell has been too restrained at decisive times in games. This is his last chance to provide the emotion that soccer viewers expect. ESPN's Bob Ley-Ty Keough duo has been superb, blending information with the proper dose of i Private Session Rooms Private Video Booths TVS T.

Romaria (left) leads Brazil into excitement. Describing what he terms a "marquee final," Malin said, "Two days ago I probably would have said Brazil (will win without hesitating. On paper Brazil has a bit more talent. But I have great respect for Italian soccer. The character Italy has shown is extraordinary.

I would not be surprised if Italy wins." Looking ahead to next season, when Major League Soccer, a new U.S. professional league, makes its debut, ESPN will carry 10 games and 25 games will be on ESPN2. The championship will be on ABC. "The conditions are better than they've ever been for soccer to succeed in the United States," O'Hara said. But Mathews warns that "the success of the World Cup does not necessarily translate into professional soccer success." And Malin notes that it will be wrong for American fans to expect World Cup level of play and excitement in Major League Soccer.

"We have to find a way to build i 7 T77V FOR a professional league in the United States with modest and professional goals," he said. MLS must develop its own stars. But until that happens, Malin suggests bringing foreign teams over to play MLS games. CHANNEL CLICKING Rush to Judgment Award: Sixers rookie point guard B.J. Tyler made a good first impresssion on Channel 3's Ukee Washington.

After Tyler's first exposure to Philly fans at McGonigle Hall this week, Washington said, "The search for a point guard is over." NBC is pleased with Tuesday's All-Star Game ratings. Its first baseball game in four years did a year's All-Star telecast.
