There are tv production companies who specialise in Sport who do this for the variety of broadcasters (BBC, ITV, Sky, Amazon, BT, Premier, Channel 4) that put out highlights of domestic but also European/World football but it depends. MOTD is done in house by BBC Sport. ITV own the rights to the Football League and have a highlights programme for that every week - not sure who makes it - and midweek when there's a full round of matches as well as the Carabao Cup and Football Trophy. Thats a lot of highlights for ITV.Out of interest, is there an independant company that does all football highlights? In other words, company 'A' will put together MotD along with ITV. I ask as whoever does the ITV highlights can only have a few matches to do each month with both cups but no EPL games. Editing Corrie with days of prep time is nothing like football and 30 minuts deadline.
ps The Albions highlights package is obviously very biased!
