AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 achieves global broadcast appeal: The AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 successfully managed to cover the Group Stage matches with almost 60 media partners and more than 120 channels providing enthralling action featuring Asia’s top 24 teams for viewers around the world. By already securing its place as the most extensively covered and accessible edition ever for television right to over 160 territories, the Group Stage games was the first time it marked its broadcast in markets other than Asia, including the USA, Europe, Latin America and Africa. With Vietnam being one of the best performing markets - over 200 million TV reach watching the Group Stage matches on VTV5 and other local channels - it represents an 84% increase in TV ratings from 2019 edition. Having not participated in the competition since 2007, Indonesia returned to the AFC Asian Cup and also qualified to the Knockout Stage for the first, drawing a colossal 154 million TV reach on RCTI and various other domestic channels. Viewership saw a huge leap on the Asian Football Confederation (AFC)’s digital engagement in the global aspect, as for the views of the highlights for the Group Stage on YouTube was up 120% from the whole of the 2019 tournament. AFC General Secretary Datuk Seri Windsor John mentioned this growth via press release: “The preliminary eye-catching TV viewership figures reinforce the growing demand for AFC football and reiterates the world-class platform of the AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 for our players, teams and passionate fans alike,” he said. “In addition to a truly global audience outreach so far, we look forward towards working hand in hand with our valued media and broadcast partners as we strive to scale the volume of TV coverage and engage with the hundreds of millions of Asian football fans like never before.” Meanwhile, sponsorships proved to be huge factor for the competition, Qatar Airways, having served as the highest quality FIFA partner since 2017, and Visit Saudi signed on the dotted line as official global partners ahead of the tournament, also VISA tagged along as a regional sponsor. It will be expected the 2027 Asian Cup in Saudi Arabia will undoubtedly take the competition to new heights as well.

How To Watch Women’s Super League (WSL) Football Live

FIFA+ delivering valuable exposure for Oceania football: The Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) is partnering with FIFA’s football streaming platform, FIFA+, to broadcast its international and club competitions for two years. The deal signifies a major win for the commercialisation and promotion of Oceanian football globally. FIFA+ is a mobile and desktop application that provides subscribers with live streaming of various FIFA competitions, magazine shows, documentary films, and archived matches from previous tournaments. The application will televise all major OFC competitions, such as the OFC Champions League (Men’s, women’s and youth), futsal and beach soccer competitions, and the men’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign. The World Cup qualifying campaign takes on greater importance this year, as for the first time ever, OFC nations will battle for one automatic spot at the 2026 Men’s FIFA World Cup. It represents an important moment for Oceanian football, and while there is global scepticism about FIFA’s move to a 48-team men’s World Cup, it is the smaller nations like those in Oceania who will benefit greatly. Adding OFC’s collaboration with FIFA+ to the mix only incentivises players and coaches further, providing them a platform to build their careers and future pathways. “This partnership with FIFA+ marks a new era for Oceania football. It’s a monumental step towards realising our dreams and showcasing the talents of our region to a global audience,” OFC General Secretary Franck Castillo said via press release. “We are excited about the opportunities this collaboration unlocks and the new horizons it opens for our players, teams, and fans.” The increased coverage will be crucial to OFC’s commercial endeavours and future sustainability as an organisation. General Secretary Castillo paid tribute to the efforts of OFC members to secure this deal. “In the last five years, OFC has gone to great lengths to grow football coverage across the Pacific and provide quality broadcast production standards to all fans,” he added via media release. “As a testament to these efforts, our social media following has increased by 110% and live streaming views by 200% since 2019. We have rallied media rights in the broadcast space and expanded our distribution from four regional TV broadcasters to 26.” “We have also expanded commercially through selling our live streaming, media and data rights for the next two years – 2024 and 2025; this is a major step forward for us in the commercial space.” Below is the full list of competitions to be shown live and free on FIFA+ in 2024: OFC Women’s Champions League – Solomon Islands | 10-23 March OFC Men’s Nations Cup – Qualifying – Tonga | 20-26 March OFC U-19 Men’s Championship – Qualifying – Vanuatu | 9-15 April OFC U-16 Men’s Championship – Qualifying – Tonga | 13-19 April OFC Futsal Men’s… #Football #Soccer #FootballNews

As a huge fan of sports entertainment I feel truly blessed that from my own home I can experience live sports of all disciplines, Now being a big consumer of sports, sometimes find myself wondering which of the main sports coverage providers I would be the most lost for if it wasn’t there no more ,and basically I’m going round the houses a bit, TNT sports or Skysports, which one of them can’t you not be without, a very complex question, because on TNT sports it is the only place you can get the European football, that is a staple part of the diet,but then on the other hand skysports provides fantastic Golf coverage, so that’s a score for each, then we have the test cricket, sky has the better coverage on the cricket although TNT formerly BT sports are closing that gap now in delivering Englands touring attractions, and they also provide lots of international cricket on their platform, sky does also have the IPL, but like I said before TNT is closing the gap on cricket and I feel like TNT hasn’t got as good of coverage on premier league,sky does have more games, I believe, I don’t know the exact numbers but with Super Sundays ,MNF, and Fridays, compared to TNT Saturday afternoon games, but an area where TNT does well is they have everyone’s teams on live over one week of the season and that is great for fans of smaller teams as they don’t always get the live matches that a team like united or Liverpool can get, so i suppose it’s close again, but in the end I can’t really do without either of them and they both do a fantastic job delivering coverage of high level sports, UFC also on TNT sports and I know sky went with Bellator for a minute but that whole Bellator thing isn’t even ten percent of what the UFC is providing, i sometimes wonder if TNT can close the gap on golf coverage by hooking up with the Liv golf tour, can be a big play for TNT sports which is now part of the discovery channel group. In summary I need to be able to see both these platforms or if I don’t then I miss sports that I want to see, but the reason I made this post is because they will both be showing the sports event of the century, fury vs Usyk, and if your going to watch the big fight next Saturday night what platform will you watch it on ,Sky, or TNT, or maybe DAZN, I never included DAZN in this rivalry because it’s not really the same as both of the other 2 that I highlighted, they are more like the old traditional cable TV, and DAZN isn’t, it’s a streaming service, and it’s only recently been included in Great Britain as well so not right to put it in this rivalry yet but who knows what the future will bring for them, thank you for reading my post and please feel free to counter anything I say in my posts I’m quite sure it will all stand up to a rigorous oversight.

New Zealand’s premier women’s Rugby Union competition, Super Rugby Aupiki, will have their final broadcast live on TikTok.   It’s the first time any sports final, male or female, will be broadcast on TikTok.   Part of a campaign to grow interest in Womens Sport, broadcaster Sky Sports, and telco partner, 2degrees will shoot the game in vertical format and stream it live and free on their TikTok channel.   Over 80% of Kiwis use social media, and TikTok, which generally attracts younger users opens a door to grow fanbases for women’s sport.   Not only of the aspect ratio of this stream going to be novel but broadcasting on a social media platform provides the option for viewers to engage in real time with other fans. Commenting and voting are both interactive elements of TikTok streams and we look forward to seeing how the sport and its partners leverage these tools to better connect with new and existing fans on game day.   Gemba Insights research for Foxtel in 2022 highlighted the need for ALL stakeholders to be involved in the growth of women’s sport - broadcasters included – so it’s great to see new and traditional media owners collaborating to this end.
