    Hmm...doesn't seem to be much in that yet. FOX still holds the rights in SA

    Says that there will be an English international feed for the games.

    Hasn't there always been an English International Feed? Traffic provided that feed and it looks like now DAZN/IMG has taken over that...

    I knew there was briefly English commentary on some Fox Soccer 2 Go broadcasts but I wasn't aware if they were produced by CONMEBOL or by Perform who operated FoxSoccer2Go.

    Nah. Those were produced by the latter.

    Fox used to have their own announcers do English commentary which was available on the SAP channel of Fox Deportes. That ceased when they followed the trend of splitting English and Spanish broadcasts to maximize distribution (many UEFA Champions League broadcasts on Fox Deportes would also be available with English SAP, often preferable to the FSC telecast since the audio on Deportes was the international feed as opposed to hearing the Fox In-house announcers on FSC.

    The Fox Sports brand will disappear in Latin America with Disney deal to buy Fox property in the region, it's likely that ESPN will get the Fox Sports rights transfer to them, I'm not sure but I think the rights to Libertadores and Sudamericana expires for all in 2018.

    It has not really been discussed anywhere so I though that I might as well bring it up here....
    ....todays Copa Libertadores Final in Madrid will be televised on both Fox Deportes and Telemundo who swooped in for the rights for some reason.

    I know that Andres Cantor is a huge Boca fan so maybe he had something to do with it.
