The question ‘where do they give the World Cup’ has passed away. The 64 World Cup matches have a common place. A friendly stand to which the most forgetful spectator can go. We are talking about LaLigaSportsTV, the LaLiga sports broadcasting platform, which, as part of the Gol Mundial channel, is confirmed as the ideal place to keep track of what is happening in Qatar 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
With Spain’s qualification finally assured and with prospects of continuing to advance steadily in the championship, LaLigaSportsTV will offer all the matches of the round of 16, quarterfinals, semifinals and the World Cup final thanks to an agreement with Mediapro, through which the OTT of LaLiga already broadcasts World Goal for a price for the user of only 19.99 euros. A pioneering alliance that highlights the invisible thread that connects LaLiga with this championship.
“It is a great achievement to have integrated Gol Mundial into our OTT”, says Julio Fariñas, head of LaLigaSportsTV. A natural step on a platform whose vision of sport goes beyond LaLiga and football, and which stands out for being a driving force behind other sports. “Integrating World Goal we continue along this line, betting that it is the user who decides what he wants to see at all times”, adds Fariñas. In this way, the LaLigaSportsTV viewer will be able to access all this new universe broadcast from the platform through a single subscription.
LaLigaSportsTV thus integrates a channel that is active 24 hours a day and that, for the first time, includes all the matches (the 64 matches live and on demand), although the information goes further and is nourished by additional content so that the fan can enter the World Cup in a big way. “Now that LaLiga Santander is on hold, soccer fans will be able to follow many of the most outstanding players in our league in the World Cup,” adds Fariñas.
With the integration of Gol Mundial, LaLigaSportsTV reaffirms itself as the ideal platform to enjoy a multitude of sports and competitions, making different packages and flexibility available to the user, according to their tastes and needs. National Futsal League, the ASOBAL Handball League, the LEB ORO basketball, petanque, boxing, sports dance, ONE Championship and AFC Champions League, are some of the disciplines integrated into the platform and which define its transversal vocation.
Gol Mundial will also be accessible at no additional cost through LaLigaTV Bar, the exclusive channel for bars and restaurants, among other spaces.
As Fariñas shares, all the establishments associated with the HORECA channel have different content options such as LaLiga Santander, LaLiga SmartBank or the Copa del Rey. “Being able to now incorporate the World Cup qualifying matches through Gol Mundial is, without a doubt, a plus,” says the head of LaLigaSportsTV. The space will also be available until December 18, the day the competition ends. “Whenever new consumption options are added for our users, it will be an improvement for them and, therefore, for us,” he concludes.
