For I think the first time, Viaplay used their own commentary for a Wales football international in the form of John Roder & Dean Saunders (Welshman Tony Jones solo on the world feed). As is customary though, there was no studio presentation. Northern Ireland's match had studio presentation from Dublin with a reporter on-site but no idea if commentary was. The Republic of Ireland's match also had Viaplay exclusive commentary and no studio presentation. Commentary for Norway v. Scotland tomorrow will be on-site.

Also interesting to see that the Viaplay UK website carried Polish commentary of Poland v. Germany tonight. I know this is something Eurosport on Discovery+ do for many available languages. It's a nice feature for what would be a significant diaspora in this case, and I doubt it would be much extra cost with the commentary already being produced.
