Huw Edwards has led a chorus of disapproval at the shock news big Wales football matches are to be lost to free-to-air television.
The broadcaster took to social media to express his concerns following the news that a new streaming service will show Wales' World Cup and Euro qualifiers, as well as Nations League matches, from 2024 onwards. Edwards was one of a number of individuals unhappy that S4C, who have covered Wales games for almost 20 years, are to lose the rights.
Instead, Nordic-based streaming service Viaplay have won exclusive rights to show Wales matches in the future. It means Wales games will no longer be shown on Sky Sports and S4C. The Welsh language channel has continuously broadcast international matches since 2003.
