Fox Sports will offer interactive pre and post-match coverage on Twitter for every single match broadcasted during the Qatar 2022 World Cup as well as the 2023 Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

In a bid to draw a larger audience, Fox Sports hopes that the delivery of exclusive content around the competition would encourage more fans to tune into the coverage of both the tournaments.

The collaboration announced between the two companies would see them work closely moving forward, the parties would jointly offer near-live video highlights, original content, interactive Q&A’s and audio sessions on Twitter spaces.
