What sports channels are broadcasting now that most soccer leagues have been suspended In less than one week, our lives have been turned upside down by the coronavirus spreading around the globe. The threat of the virus spreading has meant the suspension of the vast majority of soccer leagues around the world. But with no live sports to broadcast, what are the leading soccer-related sports networks broadcasting instead? Here’s the low-down of what you can expect on your favorite TV and streaming channels:   NBCSN One of the benefits of NBC Sports having a partnership with Sky Sports is their ability to simulcast live coverage of sports news from the United Kingdom. Earlier this week, NBCSN began extending their live coverage of Sky Sports News on weekdays to between four and six hours as a direct result of needing to fill their programming schedule. With many of the leagues and sporting competitions suspended, NBCSN has a lot more time to fill with live or on-demand programming. And Sky Sports News, being simulcast from the UK, is an ideal fit. Whether Sky Sports News will have much news to talk about with the leagues and competitions being suspended is another matter entirely. When NBCSN first started broadcasting Sky Sports News in 2019, the live UK news show was only on for one hour per day. In addition to Sky Sports News expanding on NBCSN, the network has also lined up a lot of classic matches and other soccer-related programming every weekend.   beIN SPORTS Starting Friday, watch live soccer from Turkish SüperLig all weekend long beginning with Fenerbahçe versus Kayserispor followed by Besiktas versus Antalyaspor on Saturday, March 21 and closing out the weekend on Sunday, March 22 with Rizespor versus Galatasaray and Goztepe versus Trabzonspor. Also, beginning earlier this week, beIN SPORTS and beIN SPORTS en Español will recap some of the most memorable moments of the 2019-20 season. Relive the action from the first two Copa Libertadores group stage matchdays and LaLiga’s most exciting matches of the season to date. The action continues with replays from the recent women’s soccer tournament, Tournoi de France, and LaLiga documentaries, among others. LaLiga documentaries highlight some of the stars and stories that have made it one of the best soccer leagues in the world. Also catch live airings of studio show The Locker Room on beIN SPORTS en Español and beIN SPORTS digital show, Sports Burst, on Facebook Live and beIN SPORTS XTRA, the network’s free 24/7 English-language LIVE sports, news, analysis and highlights channel.   ESPN While ESPN continues to broadcast endless coverage of talking heads on SportsCenter, the ESPN+ arm of the self-proclaimed worldwide leader in sports has three appealing points for soccer fans. First is their daily ESPN FC show that airs nightly on ESPN+ featuring discussion and analysis of the latest soccer news from around the world (and there’s plenty of it based on recent developments). Second, ESPN+ will continue to stream games from the Australian A-League which will be played behind closed doors beginning this weekend. Third and finally, ESPN+ will stream the 2020 Grand Final from the W-League in Australia featuring Melbourne against Sydney.   Fanatiz Fanatiz continues to broadcast live coverage of Real Madrid TV, Sevilla TV as well as live coverage from beIN SPORTS, beIN SPORTS en Español, TyC Sports and other channels. At $7.99 per month, the legal streaming service still has a lot to offer including live matches from the Turkish Super Lig this weekend as well as an archive of many games available on-demand.   FOX Sports Last week, a FOX Sports PR spokesperson announced, “Out of an abundance of caution, we have made the decision to suspend production of our live FS1 daily studio shows through at least Friday, March 20.” That caution has led to both FS1 and FS2 running nothing but reruns since last week. Plus, even with the rights the broadcaster has had for matches that were played, including home games for Club Tijuana and Santos Laguna in Liga MX, the broadcaster didn’t air those games and decided to show reruns instead. So far for the past week and the coming days, FS1 and FS2 have been showing a variety of reruns including U20 CONCACAF women’s Olympic qualifying, 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup final between USA and Japan, Daytona 500, 2019 Women’s World Cup, the documentary about David Beckham as well as reruns of XFL, WWE, NASCAR and boxing.   FOX SOCCER MATCH PASS FOX Soccer Match Pass has nothing listed on their live schedule of upcoming programming. Absolutely nothing.   B/R LIVE Surprisingly, B/R Live has a lot of live and on-demand content to keep soccer fans entertained. In addition to having live feeds of LFC TV, MUTV, Arsenal TV and Spurs TV, the streaming platform also has classic Champions League matches available on-demand including a full replay of Liverpool’s incredible comeback against Barcelona in the 2019 UEFA Champions League semifinals.   TUDN and Telemundo Deportes Both TUDN and Telemundo are producing original content from their studios including news, sports and analysis shows — as well as reruns.

Klopp questions Liverpool attitude after Brighton draw Liverpool (AFP) – Jurgen Klopp criticised the way Liverpool responded to squandering a two-goal lead as Brighton claimed a 2-2 draw at Anfield on Saturday. Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mane had put the Reds 2-0 in front after 24 minutes but Graham Potter’s team fought back with goals from Enock Mwepu and Leandro Trossard either side of half-time. It was just the sixth time Liverpool failed to win a Premier League home game after leading by two goals. Yves Bissouma hit the post and Trossard had a late goal disallowed for offside as the Seagulls threatened to complete a remarkable comeback win. “In the second half, we were not good enough. The body language I didn’t like it all,” the German said.  “It was like, ‘Oh my God, it’s really tough’. Yeah, it was clear before the game. “The best way to defend Brighton is to have the ball and play in the spaces where they are exposed, but we didn’t do that and that’s a problem.” Mane and Mohamed Salah had goals ruled out for handball and offside respectively as Liverpool dominated but failed to blow Brighton away in the first half. Klopp’s side remain second but missed the chance to keep pace with leaders Chelsea, who moved three points clear following their 3-0 win at Newcastle and Manchester City’s shock 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace. “It feels like a defeat, not only because we were 2-0 up and didn’t win. It’s because we scored two of the most beautiful goals I’ve ever seen us score, which were disallowed,” added Klopp. Liverpool host Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday before visiting fourth-placed West Ham in the Premier League next weekend.

Champions ‘cease operations’ as money problems dog Chinese football Shanghai (AFP) – Chinese Super League champions Jiangsu FC have “ceased operations”, the club said on Sunday, underlining the financial problems roiling football in the country. Jiangsu, who won the domestic title for the first time just three months ago, are owned by the conglomerate Suning — which also owns Italian giants Inter Milan. The demise of Jiangsu, until recently known as Jiangsu Suning, could be followed in the coming days by the closure of fellow CSL side Tianjin Teda. Chinese football has in recent years gained a reputation for lavish spending on foreign players and coaches, as the country pushed to become a world leader in the sport. Jiangsu brought in ex-England coach Fabio Capello and signed Brazilians Alex Teixeira and Ramires for 50 million euros and 28 million euros respectively. In the summer of 2019 they came close to capturing Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale. But, even prior to the coronavirus pandemic, money had begun to dry up across Chinese football. “Even though we are reluctant to part with the players who have won us the highest honours, and fans who have shared solidarity with the club, we have to regretfully make an announcement,” Jiangsu FC said in a statement. “From today, Jiangsu Football Club ceases the operation of its teams.” The club from the eastern city of Nanjing blamed an “overlap of various uncontrollable elements”. “In the past six months the club has been looking around to seek a takeover, trying with utmost sincerity to transfer the club’s equity, not giving up a single opportunity to pass on the club,” it said. Amid reports of financial difficulties, Suning’s chairman Zhang Jindong earlier this month hinted at a pivot away from sport, in comments which also did not go unnoticed in Italy, where Inter are battling rivals AC Milan for the Serie A title. “We will focus on retail business resolutely and without hesitation will close and cut down our business irrelevant to retail,” he said.
