British newspaper group News UK has been awarded the rights to Football Association match clips until 2017, the company announced on the 17/07/2013.

The FA's rights are shared between News UK, BT Sport and the BBC. This will allow News UK to show near-live clips across all its digital platforms of FA Cup matches, FA Community Shield matches, 14 England senior friendly matches, all England U21 matches (subject to them being broadcast live) and England development team matches over four years starting in 2013/14.

Subscribers to The Sun, The Times and The Sunday Times will be able to access the clips on demand via their smart phones, tablets and PCs.

In January 2013, News UK secured rights to show clips from the 380 Premier League matches each season as part of a three-year deal starting on the 17/08/2013.
