I’m not saying this is all they need to do, but what they need to do is reorganize their licensing like the prem did. Get control of Real and Barca(especially Barca) and promote the product massively in Spanish speaking countries. Prem was equal with Spain up until they got the second BIG deal with the US and NBC once that happened it was over.
Fouls that didn’t directly interfere with a goal shouldn’t directly lead to a chance on goal AND should punish defensive sloppiness. For instance one on one with keeper, keeper takes out striker that’s in on goal, moving towards goal(not around the keeper) should be straight red and penalty. Handballs akin to Suarez against Ghana straight red penalty
Handball’s on crosses should be indirect free kicks and yellows for the defenders Fouls not on shots should be yellows and indirect free kicks from spot of foul
Lastly, retrospective yellow cards for simulation.
That’s how you fix this over abundance of crap pens and diving.
Major tournaments are fine tho
I’ve never seen city gift 4 goals like that, ever year is different, you can assume what happened last year will happen again…
Im Dutch and live in America and an arsenal supporter, I hate international breaks I do like watching Holland play but it’s hard to watch games here they’re on random channels and at random times and it changes every break. If it was easier to watch I’d enjoy watching but it’s near impossible so it’s stupid.
The reason you go after those countries is because of cost, you don’t need to add any broadcasting partners you just take the Spanish coms and sell it directly to the markets. It’s not to compete with the pan american leagues its to work along side them.
