Good news for football fans: World Cup can be shown on free TV

A few weeks ago it was reported that the Premier League lost the first round of a dispute over the rights to broadcast football matches.

The General Court was advised that the Premier league’s territorial exclusivity agreements to broadcast football matches are contrary to European Union law. The final outcome is still pending, but if the court follows the advice, UK football fans will be able to use a decoder from any European country to watch league games rather than having to use an expensive Sky decoder.

Now, in a separate ruling, the General Court held that it is justified by law for member states to stipulate that the World Cup and European Championships, among other popular matches, are to be accessible by free-to-air television broadcasts.
