SERBIA & MONTENEGRO SOCCER DEAL

Tagged in &

In a bid to boost football's popularity in Serbia and Montenegro, the Association of Prva Liga Clubs has agreed a multi-game deal with national broadcaster, Radio Television Serbia.

The broadcaster will show three top-flight matches every Saturday afternoon.

The idea has proved a success so far: the first weekend's action drew one million viewers, eclipsing by far average league attendances of just 2,200 spectators.
