MIAMI, May 22 /PRNewswire/ -- GolTV, the only live bilingual channel delivering 24/7 soccer, will televise live exclusive coverage of Italy's FC Juventus Asia-Pacific Tour 2008 for North American soccer fans. Exclusive coverage kicks off today as the "Bianconeri" take on South China FC at 9 p.m. EDT. GolTV will also televise two other friendly matches against Shenhua FC in Shanghai, China and Melbourne Victory FC in Melbourne, Australia.

"GolTV earned the TV rights to the tour on account of the network's tremendous ability to draw an outstanding audience of passionate North American soccer fans," said Carlo Pozzali, CEO of MP & Silva USA branch, the leading international sports agency that owns, manages and distributes television and media rights for the Juventus Asia-Pacific summer tour.
