In case you missed the news, BBC Sport has signed a five-year deal to broadcast live Women’s Champions League matches from this season.

Manchester United’s match with Paris St-Germain at Old Trafford on 12 November will be the first game to be shown on the BBC, followed by Chelsea’s meeting with Spanish giants Barcelona on 20 November.

Director of BBC Sport Alex Kay-Jelski said: “This is a great moment for women’s football and for BBC Sport.

“Bringing the Uefa Women’s Champions League to a free-to-air audience is huge, but what makes this truly game-changing is our digital offering.

“Our multi-platform strategy means fans won’t just watch the biggest games live on TV, they’ll experience the best moments, goals and highlights across our website, app and social media platforms.

“We’re making the competition more accessible, more visible and more connected than ever before”.
