Official FA press release on ESPN deal

The FA have posted a press release on their website. This confirms the deal revealed by The Guardian article earlier today.

ESPN will be broadcasting 25 live FA Cup games from 2010 to the end of the 2013-14 season, including an exclusive Semi-Final and sharing the final with ITV. As well as the FA Cup, the deal also includes the forthcoming Women's Super League and England Under-21's home fixtures. The Women's Super League begins in 2011, so there's quite a wait for that.

The press release confirms all matches will be available in High Definition (from both ITV and ESPN).
