Filipino sports buffs can now enjoy the thrills of world-class action
from the best European footballers on the planet straight to their television
sets without the need for a pay TV subscription.
ABS-CBN Sports, the sports arm of the Philippines' premiere media and
entertainment company, and Thailand-based Triple CH Holdings are set to bring the
best of European club football to millions of Filipino viewers through the live
airing of games from the English Premier League, La Liga and UEFA Champions League
on Philippine free TV via ABS-CBN's S+A.
Filipino football fans have welcomed the good news with open arms and
positive reaction via social media. While some appreciate and thank ABS-CBN
Sports for making their dreams of bringing more European football on Philippine
television come true, there are those who consider the good news as an early
Christmas gift. But for Triple CH chairman Bernard Sumayao who is a Filipino
businessman working in Thailand for more than 30 years, it is just the beginning
of what local sports fans can expect for Philippine football.
