Today NBCUniversals Telemundo and mun2 took over as the official Spanish-language home of the FIFA World Cup in the U.S. across all video platforms following the unveiling of the FIFA World Cup Russia 2018 emblem in Moscow. The company also announced its broadcast plans for the upcoming other FIFA Events in 2015 to be featured across the Telemundo network and stations, the cable network mun2 and all its digital properties. Three years and one week ago, NBCUniversal announced the game-changing acquisition of the exclusive Spanish-language US media rights to the FIFA World Cup. Today we are proud to see the first tangible manifestation of this major acquisition, which will bring unprecedented exposure for Telemundo and mun2 and offer a unique opportunity to accelerate audience growth and consolidate our position in the industry, said Joe Uva, Chairman, Hispanic Enterprises and Content, NBCUniversal. During 2015 Telemundo and mun2 will feature 188 FIFA Events matches totaling more than 550 hours of FIFA world-class soccer. The NBCUniversal networks will cover four FIFA Events in 2015: the Mens FIFA U-20 World Cup, hosted by New Zealand from May 30 to June 20; the FIFA Womens World Cup played in Canada from June 6 to July 5; the Mens FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup hosted by Portugal from July 9 to July 19 and the FIFA U-17 World Cup played in Chile from October 17 to November 8. The networks also unveiled a composite emblem that harmonizes the images of the two Hispanic networks with the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia emblem. The resulting piece symbolizes the tournaments values and traditions and officially endows Telemundo and mun2 with the character of the official Spanish-language home of the FIFA World Cup.
