There is good news of fans of I-League football!
Football fans in India can now tune into Hotstar and Jio TV to watch the fixtures of the I-League which will not be televised. The online broadcast on Hotstar and Jio TV will be underway from tomorrow onwards, January 4, 2019, when NEROCA FC face Shillong Lajong FC in a 2pm kick-off in Imphal.
“We did not want the fans to miss out on the I-League action. Having worked this out with our commercial partners Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL), we have come to the conclusion that the matches which will not be broadcast, will be available online,” said AIFF general secretary Kushal Das. “These matches will be shown with commentary, highlights and replays.”
I-League CEO Sunando Dhar added, “The commitment was to show all the matches, and we are happy that they will be live streamed so that football fans can now follow their favourite teams.”
The non-televised matches from Saturday, January 5 onwards, can be viewed on Hotstar or Jio TV, starting with the match between Aizawl FC and Indian Arrows, which kicks off at 2pm on the same day.
