Sky Sport to broadcast New Zealand’s opener at FIFA U-20 Men’s World Cup

New Zealand’s match against Guatemala at the FIFA U-20 Men’s World Cup is a late addition to Sky Sport’s broadcast schedule.

The network has confirmed it will provide live coverage from Argentina on sports channels 4 and 9 from 5.50am on Sunday May 21.

On Thursday, Sky Sport had still to confirm a broadcast feed from the tournament, prompting some fans to fear New Zealand’s opening game would not be screened.

But the network has confirmed to NZ Football that it has locked in coverage from the tournament.
