Spanish TV producer Mediapro, main shareholder and content provider for the laSexta network, has won pay-TV broadcast rights to UEFA Champions’ League matches for the seasons 2009-2012, beating out rival Sogecable. Mediapro will now have the possibility to commercialize fourteen matches per season, although they will be second-choice matches as TVE and regional broadcasting federation FORTA have first choice of matches on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively.

Likely, Mediapro would want to screen the matches on the pay-DTT channel the company is planning, with the idea of launching it before the end of the year - provided the government is willling to change DTT law to allow pay-TV on the platform.

With the acquisition of these rights added to those the producer already has (38 of 42 soccer teams of the Spanish Soccer League starting from the season 2009-2010), Mediapro counts on an "unbeatable" worldwide soccer offering according to its managers.
