Pay-TV sports broadcaster TSN have committed themselves to covering Canada national teams' matches.

The Canadian broadcaster, whose average audiences in the first quarter of the year exceeded that of their closest competitors by 19%, will air the national women’s team’s international friendly against Brazil in June.

Both countries are set to face each other twice within a period of four days as part of the 'Road to Rio' series. The first Canada vs Brazil fixture takes place in Toronto on June 4, whereas the second match is scheduled for June 7 in Ottawa.

 

Following a new deal with Canada Soccer, TSN is expected to telecast both matches live on its family of channels. The Sports Network will also air FIFA World Cup Qualifying matches for both the men’s and women’s Canadian national teams and provide live coverage of the Amway Canadian Championship.
