Welsh-language broadcaster, S4C, will be showing each of Wales’ remaining 2018 World Cup qualifiers live after agreeing a deal with Sky Sports for the shared rights.

Starting on Friday March 24 as Wales face the Republic of Ireland at the Aviva Stadium, the deal means that viewers will be able to enjoy live coverage on free-to-air television.

Euro 2016 semi-finalists Wales also face Serbia, Austria, Moldova and Georgia in the race to reach Russia for next year’s World Cup.

S4C Sports Commissioner, Sue Butler, said: “We are delighted to offer the only live free-to-air coverage of Wales’ 2018 World Cup qualifiers.

“Chris Coleman’s team captivated us at Euro 2016 and it’s great to be back with the Wales team following all the action and drama live on S4C.”
