Discover the history of media in football
The world is constantly evolving, especially when it comes to the power of information and new technologies. Football will be no different, the sport is constantly evolving, always seeking to keep up with globalization and internet connections. In the past, fans could only find out the results of the next day's games through printed newspapers. You can follow the action live today on Football.com. Content that was previously limited to television and radio is now within reach of any smartphone with a data package and internet access. With this in mind, we decided to write an article focusing on the history of the evolution of football media. Firstly, we cannot fail to talk about transmission on digital platforms. Companies are spending huge sums of money to compete for the rights to broadcast the tournament, which actually irritates TV stations. Streaming has become a reality, broadcasting live the most important leagues in world football. However, not everything is good and the big challenge for these platforms is to force users who are used to consuming football through traditional means to make a change. Another evolution was already mentioned at the beginning of our article. With the advent of the Internet across the world, fans can not only receive information about their teams as they play, but also follow football from anywhere in the world. In addition to being able to watch any tournament, you can follow practically any club in the world, breaking the boundaries between tradition and fans who no longer need to support the club in their region. The moment of transformation is so great that even social networks are investing heavily in new ways of delivering and producing content for their audiences. Our vision is to leverage and combine utility with fun, as this means users can watch football matches without needing to disconnect. All these movements are enough for the so-called traditional media to start following suit. Grupo Globo, the country's largest broadcaster, migrated its most important football channels to allow its users to watch live TV content on cell phones or computers. So, what is the focus of this evolution and entry of new media? The democratization of football, pure and simple! The opportunity to watch different teams play from anywhere in the world and reach as many people as possible.
