The beIN Media Group has recently obtained the rights for Major League Soccer in seven major territories throughout the world. This will tie up MLS presentation in major markets like Australia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Cambodia, etc. This deal starts in 2015 and will continue for four seasons until 2018. It will allow beIN Sport to show two regular-season league matches a week as well as the play-offs, All-Star game, and MLS Cup. With last years expansion to the UK through SKY this is certain a major step in the right direction.
