TV Coverage of the World Cup in Europe

I was wondering if anyone can post the different channels in different European countries that the World Cup will be available on.

Thanks in advance.

In the UK, NASN will be covering the tournament. Nearly all the games are live.

In Finland channel 4 (called Nelonen) is going to air atleast the Team Finland matches.

What I have read is that channel 4 is going to air all the games played in Europe live. All NA games will also be aired, not live but in the next morning after the game. I just can`t remember where did I get that information.

In Slovakia there's STV2 with almost every match

I read somewhere that they'd air all the games live. :dunno:

In Sweden...

Viasat Sport 1 will broadcast every game, including Swedens three pre-season games. :banana:

Any idea which games will be broadcasted by TV 3?

This week's issue of Veikkaaja magazine confirmed it: all games live on Nelonen. :yo:

Any idea which games will be broadcasted by TV 3?
I would imagine all Swedens games, the playoffs and one or two of the other games. :dunno:

It is confirmed though that TV3 will show the first pre-season game versus Slovakia.

Thats great news.. too bad I don't know a word in swedish.. well.. whatever :)

Hey guys!

Thanks for all the replies so far.. :handclap:

Part II is that I was also trying to figure out how accessable the games are overall?
Is the broadcast channel in question for your country available to most of the population? :confused:

Nelonen (channel 4) is accessible for maybe 95% of Finland I'd say.

I read somewhere that they'd air all the games live. :dunno:

lol, conan rules :handclap:

STV2 in Slovakia is national television with coverage for almost whole SVK.

To the pre-game with Swedes - i'm going there :banana:

ITALY Sky Sport 1 (pay tv channel) will broadcast all the games (some live and some tape delayed)

If anyone has any more information, or any corrections, let us know.

I think, that the Viasatsport also broadcasts in Scandinavia and Baltics!!

STV 2 is showing ALL games LIVE form the WC. Their available to over 96 % of the country (and into other countires like CZ and Austria too, but only on the parts boarding with Slovakia).

To Palsfot: Miklanek bude robit studia v STV. Hroza.

I really hope Nova will show all the games in the Czech republic ... my VCR is ready to go!

Nova ( from what I heard) isnt showing all the games but they will show only the CZE games. But thats what I only heard. It may not be true.

Ako napriklad cez MS: Miklanek: "Ideme sa rozpravat s Richardom Pavlikovskym" a potom pride Orszagh a opravi ho ze to bol Rastislav. :lol
To ked on bude robit studia = :shakehead

Nova ( from what I heard) isnt showing all the games but they will show only the CZE games. But thats what I only heard. It may not be true.

Actually I found everything at www.svetovypohar.cz

They're going to show Czech Republic's 3 round robin games, 5 games from the North American group (including CAN vs RUS, RUS vs USA, CAN vs USA), and all the playoff games! And every day they're will be a short show with the highlights. :handclap:

I'm just pissed off I won't see Slovakia vs. Russia and Finland vs. Sweden. :banghead:

STV2 will show the Slovakian games (and all the games) and Im pretty sure you can catch it in a big part of the CZE. Where are you staying though? If in prague then you maybe wont catch STV2 but try it.

First of all, thanks for the usefull posts Gurj.


ITALY Sky Sport 1 (pay tv channel) will broadcast all the games (some live and some tape delayed)

That's what was announced months ago, but for 30 and 31 August the only game scheduled at the moment is Finland-Czech Rep. on 31st (one day delay), no tracks of Germany-Sweden and of Canada-Usa, so i'm starting to fear they won't show all the games as expected.
Which is your source?

.....

No worries!
:yo:

I just think this type of tournament should be made as accessable as possible. They (the NHLPA and NHL) should be literally giving the rights away in developing hockey countries so this event is exposed. :mad:

Anyways, my source on the Italian TV info is another poster on another forum I am a part of...you can see the post here. (http://www.internationalhockeygang.org/forum/showthread.php?p=2411#post2411)

Are an exhibition games going to be on TV?

Not to my knowledge, I think it has to do with so called TV-rights.
