Public Television Expands Coverage of LaLiga Hypermotion to Boost Accessibility
Public television channels in Spain will enhance access to LaLiga Hypermotion matches, featuring local teams weekly.
Key Points
- • LaLiga Hypermotion will be broadcast by public televisions in various Spanish regions.
- • Regions like Galicia, Canarias, Aragón, and Andalucía will feature local teams each week.
- • Movistar Plus+ includes all matches in its streaming service, competing with regional broadcasters.
- • TVG will air 15 Deportivo de La Coruña matches and five women's matches this season.
In an exciting development for Spanish football fans, several public television channels across Spain have announced they will broadcast matches from LaLiga Hypermotion, the country's Segunda División. This initiative marks a significant increase in accessibility to local football, as stations in regions such as Galicia, Canarias, Aragón, and Andalucía commit to airing at least one match each week featuring local teams.
For instance, Televisión Canaria will kick off its coverage by broadcasting the opening match of UD Las Palmas against Córdoba FC on August 25. Similarly, Canal Sur is set to showcase the match between Málaga CF and Granada CF on September 6. Furthermore, TVG, Galicia’s public broadcaster, will air 15 matches of Deportivo de La Coruña and five games from the women's team in LaLiga F Moeve, starting with the Trofeo Emma Cuervo on August 6.
This push for broader coverage comes amidst increasing competition in the media landscape. Movistar Plus+ has integrated all 42 fixtures of LaLiga Hypermotion into its streaming service without raising subscription prices, which poses a direct challenge to regional broadcasters. The combination of free television broadcasts and streaming subscriptions aims to enhance fan engagement and make Segunda División football more accessible.
The move is seen as a key step towards cultivating local football communities, giving fans in various regions of Spain the opportunity to support their teams more closely. The initiative emphasizes the importance of local teams in fostering community spirit and highlights the rising demand for football content across various media platforms. With the season approaching, these broadcasting strategies are set to transform the viewing experience for fans nationwide, reaffirming public television's commitment to promoting Spanish sports.
