Radio 2 to Call EURO Soccer

Radio 2 has been granted Australia wide broadcasting rights by the Union of European Football Association for the 2004 soccer finals, to be held in Portugal from 12 June to 4 July.

Chief Executive, Andrew Peter Thompson, says: “The European finals are second only the World Cup in popularity.

“Radio 2 will broadcast each of the 32 finals ‘live’ around Australia.

“Achieving yet another Australian broadcasting first, Radio 2 will be the only commercial broadcaster to bring the world game ‘live’ and direct to listeners across Australia.”
