The television schedules for the 2016 Olympic men’s and women’s soccer tournaments.
Olympic soccer coverage will air on a hodgepodge of NBC networks, including NBCSN, USA, MSNBC, CNBC, NBC Universo, Telemundo, and a soccer-specific specialty channel. None of the matches will make it to the NBC broadcast network, however. NBCSN will air both the men’s and women’s finals, as well as all three of the United States’ women’s group play matches.
The soccer tournaments get underway on August 3 and 4, prior to the Opening Ceremony (August 5). For the full Olympic TV schedule, including all other events, click here.
