FIFA Plus will also integrate archive of classic world cup games. Service streaming will offer all men’s and women’s matches up to the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

FIFA Plus will be free, although it may offer a premium subscription.
Unlike other platforms such as Netflix or Disney Plus, FIFA Plus is free. This does not mean that FIFA did not consider a paid subscription. This was announced by the director of the service, Chris Burr. Diversity that the platform will be strategically expanded for games, social communities, and perhaps indeed plus.
There are conversations with some streamers to create exclusive content for FIFA Plus. According to Gianni Infantino, President of the Federation, the new online video service streaming It represents vision to make football truly global and inclusive.
While the idea sounds good, the success of FIFA Plus depends on many factors. The main enemy of the International Federation of Football Associations is licenses. Initially platform will not broadcast the 2022 World Cup in Qatar live as transfer rights are different in each country.
In a statement, FIFA promises coverage of “Europe’s most important leagues” but did not specify which. It could be read like this: “We don’t have the rights to La Liga or the Premier, but we have Norwegian football or the second division in Iceland.” Pro Evolution Soccer Konami.
If the subscription model offers access to tournaments such as the World Cup or the Champions League, live matches of the most important leagues in Europe and the world (including the powerful Liga MX), FIFA Plus will become an unbeatable opponent. The likelihood that this will happen is as high as if we thought that the corruption in CONCACAF would end soon.
FIFA Plus will be available starting today on the web and on mobile phones, with the goal of expanding to other connected devices.
