Viacom 18 secures exclusive La Liga rights in Indian subcontinent

LaLiga has signed a broadcast deal with Viacom18’s flagship youth brand MTV teamed for the next 3 years. Enabled & supported by Rise Worldwide, LaLiga football tournament will now air exclusively on MTV in India, along with select national and regional network channels & live-streamed on Voot & Jio platforms. The agreement covers India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka and the Maldives. According to a press release, the coverage will be ‘enabled and supported by’ Rise Worldwide, the sports marketing company that was formerly operated as a joint venture with the IMG agency. Commentary will be provided in English and Hindi, though high-profile games will be available on additional Viacom 18 channels with commentary in Bengali, Kannada, Telugu and Malayalam. Viacom 18, a joint venture between US media giant ViacomCBS and Indian mass media company Network18, had in 2015 ruled out a move into the Indian sports rights market. Social media giant Facebook was the previous rights-holder of LaLiga in the Indian subcontinent after securing a three-season deal, from 2018-19 to 2020-21. All LaLiga matches were streamed live for free across the Indian subcontinent during the Facebook deal. Pay-television broadcaster Sony sublicensed rights from the social media platform during the first season of the deal. Sony held LaLiga rights across the region in the previous three-season cycle, from 2015-16 to 2017-18. LaLiga has had an office in India since 2016. LaLiga issued an invitation to tender earlier this year in the Indian subcontinent and set an had an initial deadline of February 8. Comparing the new agreement with the outgoing Facebook deal, Jose Antonio Cachaza, the managing director of La Liga India, told Reuters: “It’s quite an interesting time for media evolution and it’s part of LaLiga’s strategy to explore new ways and India is becoming kind of forefront of this. First it was our experience with Facebook that gave us a lot of learnings and it was also a different way to interact with the fans. And now we are sort of coming back to more traditional TV but in a totally different way. Learning is always positive. It’s usually we learn more from the bad experiences than for the good experience. What we do wrong is where we need to improve. I will never say that our experience with Facebook was a bad experience, it was a totally different experience. It is true that a small proportion of our fans never understood not having the matches accessible through the traditional channels. But if we had to do it again, we’ll do it again.”
