Three nations, three fixtures, one venue. The German Soccer Federation brought Germany, Albania, and Italy to Hamburg for a round-robin series — every team facing each other once — and needed federation-grade live production delivered directly to public platforms without a broadcast truck or a large outside crew.
We covered all three matches on a 5-camera setup, running live distribution through Starling to Twitter and YouTube simultaneously. The same infrastructure handled the full tournament without a reset between games: consistent framing, consistent graphics, consistent signal — match after match.
Round-robin formats put pressure on continuity. The production had to hold its quality across three kick-offs in the same day, not just one. It did.
