Fanatiz is an international over-the-top sports streaming service. It focuses on South American sport.
Matías Rivera founded Fanatiz in 2016 because expats from South America could only watch football from their home countries via illegal websites and in poor quality. He was eager to change this and founded Fanatiz which provides football from across South America to all countries without broadcasting rights and licenses. It started with the Argentine Football League (LPF) in September 2017. [1] In October 2018 they grew to 40 thousand registered users and have grown 30% per month. [2] In August 2020, Brazilian football leagues followed including both the national and state championships. [3] Fanatiz is based on the nunchee software. [4]

Football is the most popular sport in Brazil and a prominent part of the country's national identity. The Brazil national football team has won the FIFA World Cup five times, the most of any team, in 1958, 1962, 1970, 1994 and 2002. Brazil and Germany are the only teams to succeed in qualifying for all the World Cups for which they entered the qualifiers; Brazil is the only team to participate in every World Cup competition ever held. Brazil has also won an Olympic gold medal, at the 2016 Summer Olympics held in Rio de Janeiro and at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
The Copa do Brasil is a knockout football competition played by 92 teams, representing all 26 Brazilian states plus the Federal District. It is the Brazilian domestic cup and it is the Brazilian equivalent of the FA Cup, Taça de Portugal, Copa del Rey, Scottish Cup and Copa Argentina, even though it has much more prestige and it is considered almost as important as the Brazilian League. The Copa do Brasil is an opportunity for teams from smaller states to play against the big teams. The winner of the cup automatically qualifies for the following edition of the Copa Libertadores de América, the most prestigious continental football tournament contested by top clubs in South America organized by CONMEBOL.
