ESPN and Soccer United Marketing, the commercial arm of U.S. pro league Major League Soccer, cut a deal to run MLS games on ABC/ESPN networks through 2014. Each year, ESPN2 will air 26 regular-season
games and three playoff games. ABC will carry three games each year. A post-season package that includes the MLS Cup, the league championship match, runs on ABC. ESPN is responsible for production of
all the games. The deal is in line with ABC/ESPN's recent acquisition of the World Cup through 2014.
