In a recent holding statement, SuperSport Channel has officially declared that it will not be broadcasting the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2023, scheduled to take place from January 13th to February 11th, 2024. The channel cited the non-secured rights to broadcast the tournament as the primary reason for this decision.
Football enthusiasts need not be disheartened, however, as AFCON 2023 games will still be accessible through partner broadcast stations on Free-to-Air (FTA) channels. This strategic move ensures that fans will not miss out on the thrilling moments and competitive matches expected during the prestigious tournament.
Multichoice Africa, the parent company of SuperSport, reiterates its unwavering commitment to providing unparalleled access to entertainment and football games across the continent. While AFCON 2023 may not be part of their broadcast lineup, football fans can still enjoy a diverse range of football content on DStv and GOtv platforms. These platforms continue to showcase prominent leagues such as the Premier League, LaLiga, Serie A, Zambian Super League, and many more of football’s most prestigious competitions.
In a message addressed to valued customers on social media, SuperSport Channel expressed regret over the inability to broadcast AFCON 2023 while assuring their dedication to offering an exceptional football-viewing experience through their established platforms.
As the countdown to AFCON 2023 begins, fans are encouraged to explore alternative viewing options on partner FTA channels and to stay tuned to DStv and GOtv for an extensive array of football content. The commitment to keeping football enthusiasts entertained remains at the forefront of Multichoice Africa’s mission. The statement concludes with a firm declaration of dedication to delivering quality football programming to fans across the continent.
