TVNZ has opened a new 'game-changer' battleground with Sky TV - it will launch a pay-TV offering, starting with next year鈥檚 FIFA World Cup.

TVNZ recently confirmed  it had successfully won the rights to the world鈥檚 biggest sports tournament, starting next June in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

It confirmed it will screen All Whites matches and other selected games free - but for access to the full schedule of matches, people will need to pay for an event pass on TVNZ+.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.
