Paraguay hosts Argentina in a crucial world cup qualifying match on 9 September 2009. For Argentina, the match is very important because if they lose to Paraguay, their world cup qualifying hopes will further fade away. In fact, Argentina lost three of their last four qualifying games. With 22 points from 15 games, Argentina is now in the fourth place, while Paraguay stands third with a 5-point advantage over Argentina who are now feeling the pressure going into the match.
Paraguay just needs 3 more points to ensure their world cup berth- meaning a win over Argentina would see them through to the world cup finals. No doubt, Paraguay will be looking to clinch the world cup place in front of home fans.
Argentina fans are now very much concerned about the fact that Argentina is gradually losing their world cup hopes with the way they have been performing in the last few games. Argentina now needs to bounce back by showing a strong performance. I think, their defense needs to become more resilient and midfield should take more control.
No doubt, football fans are eagerly waiting for this match and would not leave any stone unturned to watch the match live on television. Let us now know which channels are going to telecast the match live for the viewers:
Super Sports 7
Super Sports 7 channel will telecast the match live for the African football fans The match kicks off at 00:55 - 03:00 (African time). So, African fans can easily enjoy the match live. However, the problem is that Super Sports is not allowed in most of the South Asian counties because it is a fee-to-air channel and if they enter into any country, then the other pay channels face problems in attracting viewers.
Sky Sports 3
For the European football fans, Sky Sports 3 television channel is going to show the match live. The match kicks off at 23:00 GMT. Sky Sports is one of the most popular sports channels in Europe. So, you can expect good coverage of the game on Sky Sports 3 television channels.
However, I did not find any channel which is going to show the match live in South Asia. There are millions of Argentina fans in this region and they are unfortunate they may not be able to watch such an important match of their favorite team.
