DirecTV Sports
DirecTV Sports is a leading sports television network in Latin America, originally launched in 2005 as part of the DIRECTV Latin America platform. The channel was created to provide exclusive coverage of major international sporting events to Spanish-speaking audiences across South America. It is owned and operated by DirecTV Latin America, which later became part of the Vrio Corp group. Over the years, DirecTV Sports has built a strong reputation for high-quality broadcasts, expert analysis, and comprehensive sports programming.
The channel is most widely used in countries such as Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela. It is especially popular among football fans who follow major leagues and international tournaments. Many viewers also search for online streaming alternatives like Pelota Libre to watch similar sports content digitally.
