Ian Joy commented on his new show, saying: “I’m honoured and privileged to be partnering with a leading sportsbook like PointsBet to create one-of-a-kind soccer content for the World Cup and beyond. This World Cup will be unlike no other, and I’m excited to bring soccer fans and bettors a new way to enjoy every second of the tournament.”

“The interest in soccer continues to grow among the US betting community, and we’re tapping into that with the debut of our new show Stoppage Time with Ian Joy. Whether you’re new to soccer or a veteran, this show will deliver a whole new experience for bettors.”
