ZNBC have confirmed that Red Arrows’ match against Simba will be shown live on TV this afternoon while the Zanaco versus Binga match might not be.
CAF Confederations Cup Pre Group Stage
1. Zanaco v Binga (Mali) – 3pm – National Heroes Stadium, Lusaka
2. Simba (Tanzania) v Red Arrows – Benjamin Mkapa Stadium, Dar es Salaam.
*National Heroes Stadium is about 10km from Mass Media Complex.
*Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar is about 2 000km away from Lusaka.
Kachepa On the Ball: Maybe it’s because of the lucrative TV rights deal which comes with Simba.
Simba is huge in East Africa.
And there’s a case of swap deal where ZNBC might offer live feed for the return leg next month.
Should ZNBC have gone for business or patriotism? And choose the Zanaco v Binga match
Or they should just show both, after all they are our national broadcaster.
Most EPL matches are not beamed live in the UK
While in Zambia most of the English Premier League games are televised live on DSTV, the fans in United Kingdom don’t have that luxury.
In order for fans to watch the matches live, they are encouraged to head to the stadia.
