Starting this Wednesday, users of www.fcbarcelona.cat will be able to enjoy live match commentaries with R@dio Barça. All first team matches are included in the new service and commentaries will be in Catalan, Spanish and English.
Live match commentaries via the Club’s website will be in addition to the current wide
range of online information and services. This will be the first of many planned services from
R@dio Barça and in the coming months many new programmes will be offered.
Starting with Wednesday’s Joan Gamper match against Inter Milan, match commentaries
will be available on www.fcbarcelona.cat for all first team games including friendlies. In order to
gain as wide an audience as possible, broadcasts will be made in three languages: Catalan, Spanish
and English.
Catalan and Spanish commentaries will be those offered by Barça TV via Digital Plus and
Imagenio, with expert commentaries by former Barça star Oscar Garcia in Catalan and former coach
Toño de la Cruz in Spanish.
International presence
The English commentaries will be the first of their kind as this service is not currently
being offered either on the radio or via Internet. This new service will satisfy a large and
growing demand from Barça fans around the world.
