The sunrise to sunset soccer broadcast coverage on FOX this summer should be a treat for fans in the United States with the Copa America and Euro 2024. The two international tournaments are happening at the same time. Yet, kickoff times do not overlap. Therefore, FOX will have hours of coverage every day of the two competitions.

As this is a less demanding position than play-by-play or color commentary, those two former referees will be on standby for both competitions.
