  • The rights were purchased in 2017 for a total of almost $1 billion.

    The move followed an outcry over last weekend’s FA Cup Third Round, when it was reported that Bet365 had live-streamed 23 FA Cup games on a “bet-to-view” basis, leaving traditional broadcasters — and most soccer fans — with just the crumbs. The two games broadcast live by the BBC were the only ones shown on free-to-air national TV, although another four were available on subscription-based channel BT Sports. The situation raised questions about whether betting sites are replacing television as the primary platforms for the consumption of live sports. Games shown by sites like Bet365 are only available to registered customers who have placed a bet or deposited a minimum £5 ($6.50) in the previous 24 hours. $979 Million Deal But in an official statement on Friday, the chairman of industry body the Betting and Gaming Council (BGC) Brigid Simmons said, “Our members… are happy for IMG to offer the rights to the Football Association or another appropriate body so that the games can be viewed for free by the public with immediate effect.” BGC said the statement was supported by Bet365, GVC, Flutter, William Hill, and Kindred, which together represent the seven betting companies that struck a $750 million ($979 million) deal for the rights more than two years ago with sports-marketing giant IMG. The New York-based company sold the rights on behalf of English soccer’s governing body, the Football Association (FA). Just months after the deal was signed, the FA chose to sever all of its commercial partnerships with gambling companies after a series of high-profile betting scandals involving soccer players. But it remains locked in to the broadcasting deal with the seven betting platforms until 2024. Questions Raised in Parliament The 149-year-old FA Cup is the world’s oldest existing soccer competition and holds a special place in the hearts of English fans. Anger over the perceived takeover of the event by the betting industry was inflamed because Third Round is supposed to be a platform to raise awareness of the FA’s mental health charity campaign. The issue was even raised in parliament Thursday, where lawmakers vented their outrage and threatened to scrap the FA’s £30 million-a-year taxpayer funding. We’re very angry as a government about this arrangement,” said sports minister Nigel Adams. “We’ve asked the Football Association to look at this deal and see what opportunities there are to rescind this element of the deal.” The Daily Mail reports that FA chief executive Mark Bullingham held “crisis talks” with Adams on Thursday, as the sporting body sought a way out of the deal. But the betting industry — eager to avoid controversy as the government considers imposing further regulatory clampdowns — appears to have thrown the FA a lifeline. The seven betting companies will continue to broadcast games on a bet-per-view basis, but will permit the FA to also stream them live on its website, free of charge.

  • Leicester living legend Vardy scores 137th career point

    The striker, who ranks 15th with the most goals scored in the history of the Premier League, is back. It is Jamie Vardy. Leicester City drew 1-1 with Tottenham Hotspur in the opening match of the 2024-25 Premier League (PL) at King Power Stadium in Leicester, England, at 4 a.m. on the 20th (Korea time). Leicester pulled out a 4-2-3-1 formation. Vardy, Bobi Reid, Pakundo Buonanote, Abdul Patau Isahaku, Wilfried Ndidi, Harry Winks, Christiansen Viktor, Bout Pas, Yannick Vestergaard, James Justin and Mads Hermansen were among the starters. Tottenham prepared for a 4-3-3 formation. Son Heung-min, Dominic Solanke, Brennan Johnson, James Maddison, Rodrigo Bentancur, Pape Sarr, Destiny Udoji, Mickey van the Pen, Christian Romero, Pedro Porro, and Guglielmo Vicario were chosen. Tottenham pushed early in the first half. Madison scored a free kick from Son Heung-min in the 6th minute of the first half. Bentancourt headed for the corner at the gate, but the defense cleared it. Johnson finished the second ball, but it was blocked by the goalkeeper. The Sonke combination was almost activated. Solanke finished the cross from Son Heung-min in the eighth minute of the first half with a header from the goal, but failed to make a proper impact. Solanke once again hit the captive's cross to his head in the 14th minute of the first half, but the goalkeeper caught it. Tottenham, who kept knocking, laughed first. In the 29th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min caught the ball on the left side and sent a pass to Madison in the midfield. Madison, who received the ball near the half-space, immediately scored a sharp early cross toward the goal, and the prisoner who was rushing through it turned to the back of his head and scored the first goal. Leicester City pursued a strategy of focusing on defense while lowering the line throughout the first half. Leicester City only had one shot in the first half. However, as it entered the second half, it gradually elevated the line and gained weight in its offense. Eventually, the score was balanced. At the 12th minute in the second half, Vardy, who was waiting at the opposite post, pushed a cross from Abdul Isahaku's right side, to the head. Eventually, the two teams ended up sharing one point each. With this score, Vardy will have scored a goal on the PL stage for the first time in a year and seven months since the match against Everton on January 5, 2023. Vardy scored 18 goals in league standards with the team that was relegated to the English Championship (second division) last season, helping the team win the league and promote the league. Starting from the opening game, the "Fox Corps" has returned to the PL stage. Vardy now has the 137th point in his PL career, adding another record to his record. This is the 15th highest score ever recorded. On top of Vardy, Robin van Persie (144 goals) is ranked at the 14th.

  • "I'm cautious." The head coach is also cautious. How serious is Kim Ha-sung's injury

    San Diego Padres manager Mike Shildt mentioned the extent and situation of Kim Ha-sung's injury ahead of the game against the Minnesota Twins at Petco Park in San Diego, California on the 20th (Korea Standard Time). Kim Ha-sung was injured in an away game against the Colorado Rockies on the previous day. As the leadoff hitter in the third inning, Kim had a hit to the left. It was Kim Ha-sung who was attempting to steal second base while seeking to catch a hit. Then, pitcher Bradley Blaylock checked the first base in a surprise move at the batter's box of Luis Arraez with one out. Kim Ha-sung returned to the first base by head-first sliding. However, he sent a signal to the bench immediately after taking the base with his right hand. Then, Kim Ha-sung held his right shoulder. Coach Mike Shildt and trainer rushed toward first base, and Kim Ha-sung was replaced. Kim Ha-sung expressed his anger roughly. He even threw a helmet from the dugout. It was a scene that hinted at his unusual condition. After the game, the San Diego Padres said, "Kim Ha-sung showed signs of stiff shoulders. He will undergo an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) examination tomorrow (20th)." "He is not in a good condition. It happened too quickly," Kim said. "I will have an MRI exam tomorrow and see how much my injury is. I will think positively. I will come back as soon as possible." However, after undergoing MRI, the team and Shildt are cautious. It seemed that they could not afford to think positively. "Kim Ha-sung underwent MRI examination," Shildt said before the game. "However, we are still analyzing the results of the imaging. I was more optimistic at first, but I think I should speak carefully. More video analysis is needed. It could be better or worse. We are still collecting information." He also did not confirm whether he will be listed on the injured list. In addition, Kim Ha-sung said he would not participate in the game at all. In place of Kim Ha-sung, Tyler Wade will be the starting shortstop for the match against Minnesota on the day. Luis Arraez (designated hitter), Jurix Profar (left fielder), Jake Cronenworth (first baseman), Manny Machado (third baseman), Xander Bogaerts (second baseman), Jackson Merrill (center fielder), David Peralta (right fielder), Kyle Higashioka (poster) and Tyler Wade (striker).
