Tigo Sports reported that it will broadcast all Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup 64 matches in Full HD. The company informed that, unlike the 2018 World Cup, the coverage of the next one will be available in a multiplatform system that will allow pre and post-paid clients to access matches through their residential service, or using the Tigo Sports app in smartphones. Tigo will also broadcast other sports competitions.
‘For Tigo Sports it is very important to offer the best programming and the best tournaments in national and international football. This is the reason why we continue to innovate and, for the first time in Guatemala, we will offer our customers a multiplatform experience to enjoy the 2022 World Cup on TV, web or on their Tigo smartphones, and allow them not to miss a single match, always in Full HD, both of the World Cup and all FIFA 2019-2022 competitions,’ said Gustavo Vassaux, Digital Director and Product Development at Tigo Guatemala.
Apart from the announcement of the next World Cup matches broadcast, Tigo Sports will continue to air the best contents from the Guatemalan National Major League, the country’s National Team and the Futsal. As part of the new agreements ran by the company to broadcast sports events, it will present the Central American Premier Cup, which brings together important teams from Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Panama, and will be taking place until July 20th. The Concacaf Nations League is also included, which will meet the 41 affiliated teams, and in which Tigo Sports acquired its broadcasting rights for four years. The company will air 214 matches, including those played by the Guatemalan National Team as a visitor. The Tigo Sports catalog will also include matches of the main teams of the Italian Cup, such as Inter, Milan, Napoli, Roma, Lazio and Juventus.
‘Since the launch of the TV channel, Tigo Sports has made history by offering Guatemalans world class TV studios, the best national and international talent, a 100% HD network and, for the first time in the country’s history,, the entire broadcast of national football and the World Cup in HD. This commits us even more to continue bringing the best of the sport and take it to another level’, added Marvin Martinez, Chief B2C at Tigo Guatemala.
