The FIFA World Cup is the biggest sporting event in the globe, and brings together the thirty-two best national teams in the world of football. It happens only once every four years, which makes it even more special. The last World Cup had 3.5 billion viewers, becoming the most popular edition of the event. FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 is expected to have around 5 billion viewers, crushing the previous record and becoming the most popular sporting event of all time.
With the FIFA World Cup being such an important tournament, until now only TV stations from all around the world had the broadcasting rights to the tournament. However, that will change this year, since for the first time, a content creator was given the rights to broadcast the FIFA World Cup. In a partnership with Live Mode, a company that works with broadcasting rights of sporting events and streaming platforms, Casimito will be able to broadcast the tournament in an official way.
That content creator is no other than Brazilian megastar casimito. He is known for streaming a lot of sporting events and watching summaries of the games from all the major leagues, especially the Brazilian leagues. Casimito has also broadcasted plenty of football games on his channel, most being from the Copa do Brazil and only subs could watch them. This time it's different since everyone will be able to watch the game, bringing the spectacle of football to thousands of homes for free.
Casimito will be allowed to broadcast one game per day until the grand final, streaming a total of twenty-two games. He will broadcast all the games of the Brazilian national team, which will certainly captivate the attention of many Brazilian fans, as he is loved by thousands of football fans, and is arguably the biggest football content creator in the country.
