Yes, you read that correctly. They'll be televising a U-21 fixture. This will be the first time they've ever done it and they've picked the Spurs youngsters to feature in their debut match.
So, not only do Americans have access to every Premier League match played throughout the season, but now we get a sprinkling of youth level matches as well.
Meanwhile in the United Kingdom, you have to pay of a yearly license just to receive television and then only certain matches are available to actually watch. Tough luck, guys.
For anyone who has followed CFC's prospect rankings (hopefully everyone) you'll get a chance to put faces and playing styles to the names and descriptions of the youngsters. Particularly, if you're American, it'll be a great chance to see United States youth international, Cameron Carter-Vickers, in action. Him along with a few others from our prospect list will surely be in action.
