The South African group of channels has bought pay broadcast rights to all 50 CAF Africa Cup of Nation (AFCON 2015) qualifiers that will be produced by Sportfive, as well as Bafana Bafana and Nigeria matches.

According to SuperSport, the qualifiers will take place in the run up to the AFCON tournament in Morocco in January.

The matches will be broadcasted in all SuperSport’s sub-Saharan territories, with rights obtainable on multi-platforms: streaming, DVBH, Catch Up and VOD.

“I’m delighted because this is the first time we have secured a block of AFCON qualifiers,” said, acting chief executive of SuperSport, Brandon Foot.
