Victor Lindelรถf‘s Wife Criticizes Viaplay Over World Cup Qualifier Broadcast
Stockholm, Sweden – Maja nilsson Lindelรถf, wife of Swedish national team player Victor Nilsson โคLindelรถf, has publicly expressed frustration with Viaplay’s broadcasting of theโข World Cup qualifierโค between Swedenโฃ and Switzerland on Friday night. Nilsson Lindelรถf discovered the match would be shown exclusively on Viaplay Sport, a channel she does not subscribe to, preventing herโ and her children from watching from home.
“I โคwas really so provokedโ for this with where theโข match is broadcast. Howโฃ can you send a World โคCup qualifier without the whole of Sweden seeing it? It’s idiocy or?” โshe stated.
Nilsson Lindelรถf also โคencountered difficulties attempting โขto purchase a subscription, noting Viaplayโ does not accept foreign credit cards and account sharing is prohibited. She questionedโ the โnecessity of purchasing a separate account for 700 โคSEK simply to view a single match, calling it “totally unreasonable” and arguing that such games shouldโฃ be available on traditionalโ television channels.
Viaplay’s press manager, Susanne Nylรฉn, respondedโข to the criticism, asserting that the match is accessible to all โSwedish viewersโฃ through both Viaplay’s โstreamingโค service andโ the linear TV channel Viaplay Sport. Nylรฉn highlighted the platform’s broad reach, citing a million-person audience during the โEuropean Championshipsโ earlier this year.She explained that access to Viaplay Sport is included in most TV packages, accept forโ Tele2 customersโ who requireโค a total package.
Regardingโ the restrictions โon foreign cards โฃand account sharing, Nylรฉn statedโข that geographical limitations areโข standard practice in the streamingโ industry to โคprotectโ broadcasting rights.โ She also clarified that โคaccount sharing within a household is permitted andโฃ customer service can assist with โany relatedโ issues.
Nylรฉn further stated that Nilsson Lindelรถf does not need to purchase a 700 SEK account, as Viaplay Sport โis included in the mediumโข package, which costs 399 SEK, or is available through various TV operators.
The Sweden-Switzerland match โคis scheduled toโ begin at 20.45.
