DR, the Danish public broadcaster, and the semi-public TV2 group will share the live broadcast of the 51 tournament matches in Denmark. Both groups will also offer a magazine programme and summaries of all matches. The Skjarinn pay-TV group receives the same broadcasting rights for Iceland. This is the first time that Skjarinn has acquired the TV rights to competitions organised by UEFA. The rights are valid for all distribution platforms.
