The service offers subscribers video highlights of every match from the group stages through to the final, video footage of every goal scored in this season’s Champions LeagueB as well as last season’s competition, live audio commentary of every game and full video re-runs of all the games.

The archive material includes more than 5,000 video clips including every game in the entire 12-year history of the competition as well as UEFA CupB finals and UEFA Super CupB finals.

There is also a daily video news bulletin, a weekly magazine show featuring interviews with players and profiles on key European club sides, and a search facility allowing fans to locate video footage of players and teams as well as specific matches.
