BBC wins Club World Cup TV rights

Will follow Liverpool's progress in the competition

The BBC has won the broadcast rights to next month’s FIFA Club World Cup.

It will broadcast every match live from Qatar when the event begins on 11th December.

UEFA Champions League winners Liverpool join the competition the following week, having been given a bye for the first round.

Liverpool’s games will be shown live on BBC TV and every other match will be available to watch online and on the BBC iPlayer.

Philip Bernie, head of BBC TV Sport, said: “We’re very excited to broadcast the Fifa Club World Cup and show audiences the best teams in world football across our free-to-air channels.

“Along with the Fifa World Cup, UEFA European Championship and FA Cup, this competition is a fantastic addition to the BBC’s football portfolio.”
