FOX SPORTS UNVEILS "MULTIMATCH 90"
Live Whip-Around Show Covers UEFA Champions League Match Days As Never Before; Debuts Sept. 16
Los Angeles - Next week, FOX Sports introduces MULTIMATCH 90, a live whip-around show airing during UEFA Champions League group stage play, and is formatted to bring viewers every goal and big play in near-real time from the eight matches being contested simultaneously. The program debuts Tuesday, Sept. 16 (2:30 PM ET) on FOX Soccer Plus and online via FOX Soccer 2Go.
"One of the great, unique aspects of UEFA Champions League Match Days is the simultaneous action taking place all over Europe, and we're excited to offer fans MULTIMATCH 90," said FOX Soccer Executive Producer Jonty Whitehead. "For the first time fans have a single destination where they can see it all, virtually as it happens."
MULTIMATCH 90 originates from the FOX Network Center in Los Angeles and begins at match kickoff, jumping from game to game. Live, whip-around coverage keeps the viewer up-to-the-minute with the latest results and highlights either live or literally moments after they happen.
After the day's eight matches conclude, the MULTIMATCH 90 feed then joins the FOX Sports 1 Postgame Show with Rob Stone, Eric Wynalda, Warren Barton and Brian McBride.
MULTIMATCH 90 airs on FOX Soccer Plus, as well as live and via on-demand streaming on the FOX Soccer 2Go app and website. FOX Soccer Plus offers a free preview of the channel on most outlets including DirecTV, Verizon FiOS and AT&T U-verse, from Oct. 18 to 26, which coincides with Match Day 3 games, and a longer preview on Dish from Oct. 15 to 29. MULTIMATCH 90 is also available on the FOX Soccer 2Go website, and app via Apple and Android devices, with a free seven-day trial that coincides with the first set of matches, on Sept. 16 and 17.
Every UEFA Champions League game is available across the FOX Sports networks and digital platforms, with Match Day 1 (Sept. 16-17), Match Day 2 (Sept. 30-Oct. 1), Match Day 3 (Oct. 21-22), Match Day 4 (Nov. 4-5), Match Day 5 (Nov. 25-26) and Match Day 6 (Dec. 9-10).
