AFCON game not shown

[SergeSagna]

I took a subscription to watch the Africa Cup of Nations and it was said the NOW Tv would show all the games. I am now trying to watch a game, but it is NOT being shown!

Why!!!???

Can we have an explanation for this?

This is beyond ridiculous. I got a TV license and subscribed to NOW TV and bought the sports package to be able to watch the game, but they're not streaming it, despite their ads saying they will stream all Africa Cup of Nations games live. 😡

Hi @gavs82008 

I don't know if this 3pm Saturday Football blackout rule only covers European Football or other areas around the world.

The Sky Football website page shows the match in question kicks off at 4pm but doesn't get broadcast until 5.15pm which would suggest to me the 3pm Saturday TV football blackout rule comes into play (unless somebody knows differently).

Something I’ve never ever agreed with is the stupid blackout. 
End of the day folk who want to go to the game will go regardless of it being on TV or not.
