The price gap in football broadcasting
A standout feature of the Club World Cup is its free availability on DAZN - unlike most global leagues.
Since 2018, Argentine football airs exclusively on ESPN Premium and TNT Sports, now costing an extra $15,800 ARS (~$14 USD) atop regular cable.
Paywalled league football isn't unique to Argentina - European and Latin American nations (Chile, Brazil, Ecuador etc.) charge $10-$20 monthly for premium sports channels.
