“As it is not easy to do European Cup bidding. From Euro 96 we have already aired this tournament. Of course with this the responsibility becomes heavy, the public would want more impressions from year to year,” explained RCTI CEO, Kanti Mirdiati.

Later MNC Group will broadcast all matches live to the final round. The broadcast can be seen on RCTI and also four MNC platforms. There will be 39 matches broadcasted by RCTI free to air and 51 on the MNC platform.
