FOX SPORTS’ four broadcast matches during the Round of 32 will also carry highlights and live crosses to the non-broadcast matches in a boost to fans of all 32 teams competing in the Westfield FFA Cup.

FOX SPORTS CEO, Patrick Delany, said: “The inaugural FFA Cup was a huge success. Australians fell in love with the magic of this truly national competition as the underdog grassroots clubs took on the big-hitting A-League teams.”

“This year we will take our coverage to new heights providing live streaming of all 20 matches not broadcast on FOX SPORTS, all with multi-camera coverage and full commentary.”
