Romanian TV to broadcast Europa match

Romanian TV channel Digisport will broadcast the second leg of the Europa League third  round qualifier between West Ham v FC Astra Giurgiu next Thursday.

Although no English commentary has been confirmed , the presence of the LIVE cameras increases the chances that a British broadcaster will take the coverage.

At the worst it will be available as a Internet stream with foreign commentary.

West Ham have been allocated just 500 tickets for the away leg in Romania priced at £11 each plus a £6.95 booking and special delivery postal fee. Priority Points applicants will hear today whether they have been successful in getting tickets for Romania.

Media in Romania claim around 3,000 Romanians attended last night’s sell out match at the Boleyn ground. Many mingled with home supporters in a match which finished 2-2.
