ESPN and ABC announced this week that they have teamed up with Soccer United Marketing to show all 64 matches of the '06 FIFA World Cup in high-def. The World Cup will take place in 12 cities throughout Germany and will run from June 9th to July 9th. Pre-game, halftime and post-game segments will also be presented in HD. It's a milestone of sorts for the two networks and the game of soccer, as it marks the first time that all 64 matches will be shown in HD in the U.S., an effort that will require a minimum of 20 HD cameras per game.
The 64 matches will air on ABC HD, ESPN HD and ESPN2 HD.
