Viasat announces English football deal

Viasat Broadcasting has acquired the exclusive broadcasting rights for free and pay TV from the English FA Cup and England's International football team's home matches over the next four years.

Viasat has also acquired the rights to the Swedish team's away matches for the qualification to the World Cup 2006, excluding the Malta match. Together with the already announced acquisition of the home matches, Viasat now promises extensive coverage of Sweden's football team's qualification matches for the 2006 World Cup in Germany.

The FA Cup rights are for the next four seasons and cover Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark and Iceland while the rights for the English team's home matches run until summer 2008 in all Scandinavian countries.

The exclusive rights for broadcasting the Swedish team's away matches covers the World Cup qualifier clashes with Croatia, Bulgaria, Iceland and Hungary.
