Network Ten and Paramount+ Football coverage

perhaps the toughest draw the socceroos could have got, including japan, saudi arabia and china…with that amount of difficulty i wouldnt rule out the socceroos finishing 3rd in the group and having to go through the asian 5th place playoff over 1 leg (perhaps v iraq or uae) and then vs south america 5th…or…concacaf 4th…or oceania 1st playoff over 2 legs route one last time before the playoff format changes for 2026

right now i could see the other 3 inter confederation playoff nations for the playoffs in june 2022 being colombia (or uruguay), honduras (or panama), nz

At least some tough games that will rate for 10.

for sure, ten will be very happy

they didnt reveal the neutral host venue and city for the one legged afc r4 fifth place playoff

fixtures out for r3 already apparently…

Since ViacomCBS’ deal with Football Australia doesn’t start until August 1, Japan v Australia should be on Fox Sports and ABC.

would the friendly be scheduled already for the Australian TV broadcaster or we won’t know closer till the kick off.

It will probably be on SBS, but we won’t know anything until closer to the match.

Apparently Mark Rudan is rumoured to be part of 10s coverage

Yes.

Incorrect. The matches won’t be on Paramount+ (well, not live anyway) as it won’t have launched yet. Likely to be on 10Play or My Football YouTube channel.

It’s actually the other way around, Pheonix are the home team, although they won’t host any matches in NZ (barring a final).

I can’t see anything listed in the guide for either FTA broadcaster let alone Pay TV.

Like I said, these deals could be last minute, or it could be on YouTube.

Will there be a yearly subscription available for Paramount+, I wonder?
