Euro 2024 is the first edition of the European Championship to air on FOX, and the broadcaster released its group-stage schedule. FOX is new to the Euros, but it is not new to international tournaments. FOX has broadcasted the men’s and women’s World Cup tournaments since the 2015 edition in Canada. Additionally, FOX has the rights to the CONMEBOL Copa America. It took over that role in the last Copa America in 2021.
To commemorate the addition of the Euros to its portfolio, FOX is welcoming a talented assortment of talent. That includes both in-studio crews and commentator pairings. The studio crew for FOX has the likes of Alexi Lalas, Maurice Edu and Stu Holden. However, it also features a handful of people based out of Europe. Giorgio Chiellini, Daniel Sturridge, Peter Schmeichel and Ariane Hingst.
There will be four commentary pairings working the 51 games at Euro 2024. That features the familiar voices of Ian Darke, Derek Rae and Jacqui Oatley. Each of those three names was a part of FOX’s World Cup commentary at the World Cup in Qatar. The fourth play-by-play voice is Darren Fletcher, who has ample experience calling the Premier League and UEFA Champions League.
Their analysts are familiar as well. Landon Donovan, Robert Green, Warren Barton and Owen Hargreaves will be providing insight during games for their play-by-play counterparts. Now, we know which games in particular they will be working.
