Story Highlights
CBS Sports will launch CBS Sports Golazo Network, a first-of-its-kind free, 24-hour direct-to-consumer digital network in the U.S. dedicated exclusively to global soccer coverage, on April 11. The year-round streaming network will feature top coverage of all the top domestic and international soccer competitions across the globe.
CBS Sports Golazo Network will be anchored weekdays from 7-9 a.m. ET, by Morning Footy, the Network's flagship morning show hosted by Susannah Collins and featuring analysts Charlie Davies and Nico Cantor, soccer personality and comedian Alexis Guerreros, and reporter Jenny Chiu. In addition, the network will feature live matches, pre- and post-match breakdowns, magazine shows, films from Paramount+'s Stories From the Beautiful Game soccer documentary collection and original programming.
The launch of the CBS Sports Golazo Network demonstrates the continued evolution of our industry-leading soccer coverage as we build on the incredible momentum we have created the past three years delivering authentic, informative, engaging and entertaining content across multiple platforms, says Sean McManus, chairman of CBS Sports. Led by our best-in-class studio shows and announcers, more than 2,400 live soccer matches a year and now a dedicated soccer streaming network, CBS Sports is the ultimate destination for soccer fans.
At launch, the CBS Sports Golazo Network will be available free on CBSSports.com, the CBS Sports app for connected TV devices, the CBS Sports mobile app and Pluto TV, as well as Paramount+.
Interest in soccer has never been stronger. By launching a first-of-its-kind streaming network in the U.S. dedicated to soccer globally, CBS Sports Golazo Network provides a tremendous growth opportunity by delivering unprecedented, round-the-clock coverage for passionate soccer fans, says Jeff Gerttula, executive vice president, digital, of CBS Sports and CBS News and Stations. CBS Sports Golazo Network capitalizes on our existing soccer rights by building free audiences around CBS Sports and Pluto TV platforms while driving new subscribers and enhancing the sports experience for Paramount+.

The CBS Sports Golazo Network's 24/7 programming lineup will include select live matches plus match re-airs, leveraging CBS Sports' collection of top-tier soccer properties, including UEFA Europa League, UEFA Europa Conference League, Serie A, NWSL, Concacaf national team competitions, Barclays Women's Super League, Campeonato Brasileir o S rie A, Scottish Professional Football League, Argentina Liga Profesional de F tbol and the AFC Champions League.
