ViacomCBS deal sees Socceroos, Matildas, FFA Cup head to Ten & Paramount+

Matches played by Australia’s national football teams, the Socceroos and Matildas, will be shown free-to-air on Ten as part of a free-to-air broadcast deal for Football Australia’s (FA) national teams, lasting through to the end of 2024.

Network Ten parent ViacomCBS has secured the rights to all international matches outside World Cup, including the World Cup qualifiers, and games by Young Socceroos, Westfield Young Matildas, Joeys, and Westfield Junior Matildas, as well as the FFA Cup, and various AFC (The Asian Football Confederation) competitions.

Football Australia said the agreement is the largest Socceroos and Westfield Matildas broadcast deal ever, and comes after the FA acquired the rights to the Asian Football Confederation competitions from the AFC.
