FanCode has announced the launch of  FIFA+ Zone and FAST channel (a free ad-supported streaming channel) on its platform for Indian football fans. 

The channel will show football-focused content, including exclusive interviews, documentaries, and behind-the-scenes content with some of the biggest names in the game. This will include new and archived content from previous FIFA tournaments, including the FIFA World Cups.

FIFA+ Zone aims to entertain Indian audiences through specially curated programming including interviews, documentaries, and highlights featuring teams and players popular with Indian fans and the best of FIFA World Cup action, the streaming platform said in a statement.

Some of the original content will include: 

• FIFA+ originals: Unique documentaries, interviews, and behind-the-scenes content that delve into the stories of the world’s greatest footballers, teams and moments. 
• FIFA archival match footage: Classic matches from past FIFA World Cups™, top women's matches, and other significant tournaments, offering fans a journey through football history. 
• Additional content: Fresh and exciting content will be coming to FIFA+ through 2025 and beyond.

Prasana Krishnan, co-founder, FanCode, said, “This collaboration with FIFA+ will give Indian fans access to best-in-class non-live football programming. The passion for the game has grown substantially in the last few years with more than 305 million football fans in the country but the content served to them hasn’t kept pace with the fandom. With some of the top leagues and players across the globe already on FanCode, this addition will help us add further value in our football offerings to fans.”

The deal aims to further strengthen the streaming platform’s football portfolio which includes the Carabao Cup, Copa Del Rey, select FIFA World Cup qualifiers from South America and Asia, AFCON, A-League, and J-League, amongst other events/leagues.
