DOHA: beIN Media Group has revealed its extensive broadcast plans for the upcoming final of the FIFA World Cup 2022 — including live, exclusive and multilingual coverage of the Dec. 18 finale between Argentina and France.
The broadcast will be made available on beIN SPORTS’ free-to-air channel as part of its commitment to making the Arab world’s first tournament accessible for viewers across the Middle East and North Africa. The match, as well as the entire day’s coverage, will be available to stream free of charge on beIN’s official YouTube channel.
As the official broadcaster in 24 countries across MENA, beIN has played a central role in showcasing Qatar and its groundbreaking tournament to the world this past month, with more than 5 billion accumulated views since the biggest single sporting event on the planet kicked off on Nov. 20.
Sunday’s trophy match between an Argentina side looking to secure a third World Cup title and the defending world champions France, promises to be one of the most-watched sports events in history.
Mohammad Al-Subaie, CEO of beIN MENA, said: “The final of the FIFA World Cup this Sunday will be a historic occasion for football, for the Arab world, and for beIN. For this reason, we are determined to make sure it is available to as many people who want to watch it as possible.”
“With two games remaining, we are set to finish the tournament as we started and cannot wait to witness — and broadcast — history as it is written.”
