Asamoah Gyan, Africa’s all-time leading World Cup scorer, will be among the specialist analysts fronting up SuperSport’s coverage of the TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon which kickoffs this Sunday.
The Ghanaian is among a star cast of experts, among them Teko Modise, Jay Jay Okocha, James Chamanga and Rhulani Mokwena, who will be unpicking the form of top teams like Algeria, the defending champions, Nigeria, Egypt, Ghana and Tunisia.
In an announcement to the press, MultiChoice Uganda’s Head of Marketing Colin Asiimwe reiterated SuperSport’s commitment to deliver unbeatable entertainment in the world of sports especially the AFCON tournament which is truly African.
“We are excited to officially broadcast all the AFCON games for all our DStv and GOtv subscribers. It is the most watched tournament within the African tournament, and it is only right that we serve our customers in Uganda with this action on all our SuperSport channels,” Asiimwe said.
To ensure the widest possible coverage of the 33rd edition of Africa’s showpiece event, SuperSport will host build-ups and post-match assessments, ensuring every angle is covered for a tournament that has been long awaited after being postponed from last July. Beyond this, there will be magazine programming and news updates from in-country broadcast teams.
All 52 matches (including 32 group stage fixtures) will be broadcast live on DStv and GOtv with several dedicated channels to ensure the widest, most entertaining broadcast of the 33rd edition of the event.
Additionally, all matches will be streamed live on Showmax Pro.
