ESPN Latin America is an ESPN channel that broadcasts in Latin America and Brazil (in Portuguese), not to be confused with ESPN Deportes, which is another channel which broadcasts in the United States in Spanish. ESPN Latin America is not available in the U.S., because it is not authorized to air most of the programming seen on its U.S. sister channels due to television rights affecting the programs. It is adapted to the demands of Spanish-speaking viewers, who tend to prefer football and Hispanic baseball players to the more Anglo-centric programming or athletes and Portuguese-speaking viewers who also tend to prefer football and prefer other popular sports in Brazil like basketball, futsal and volleyball.
