Mere weeks after the conclusion of last season’s tournament, the new season of the UEFA Champions League is just around the corner! You’ll catch every game live on Virgin Media Sport, Virgin TV 400 and some of the big ones on Virgin Media One, Virgin TV 103 – and boy, there’s a whole lot to look forward to!
While the group stages of the competition would normally be spread across nearly three months, it’s a very different story this time; the first six match days take place across just seven weeks! That means a white-knuckle ride towards the knockout stages, with the likes of Manchester United, Barcelona, Juventus and Bayern Munich in action; in fact, it’s the perfect recipe for heated rivalries, grudge matches, and a whole heap of drama. What’s not to like about that?
There’s nothing like clearing an evening for a feast of football – but sometimes life might just get in the way! With the Virgin TV Anywhere app, though, that’s not a problem; you can follow all the action on your phone, tablet or laptop. So, if you’re walking the dog, stuck at work, or just need to leave the living room, you can be sure to take the continent’s finest football with you – now that’s a winning move!
Think the action begins and ends on the pitch? Think again! Watching the games on Virgin Media Sport also means getting the expert analysis of pundits including Niall Quinn, Graeme Souness, Brian Kerr and Keith Andrews, with Tommy Martin there to keep the debate and discussion in check. You’ll also be kept up to date with all the news happening off the field, so that even when the game is over there’s still plenty for fans to enjoy!
If every single game from the UEFA Champions League isn’t enough to quench your football thirst, then you’re in luck; there’s also the not-so-small matter of the UEFA Europa League to look forward to! Tune in on Thursdays and you’ll find even more of the continent’s best teams strutting their stuff. What’s more, there’s also loads of international action on the way – so you’ll never be short of opportunity to get your kicks!
