Details on watching CBS Sports' popular coverage during the Champions League final

Regional rights: CBS Sports does not hold the official broadcasting rights for the Champions League in UK. They belong to TNT Sports and its streaming platform HBO Max, which will show the Champions League final.

Geographical restrictions: The Paramount+ app, which broadcasts CBS content, is geo-blocked for users outside the United States. You will typically encounter an error message when trying to access the live stream from a UK IP address.

Social media: UK supporters can still view highlights and viral studio segments via the @‌CBSSportsGolazo accounts on X and YouTube. These clips circumvent regional blocks and are extremely popular for their banter-heavy style.

Kate Scott (formerly Abdo): The programme is anchored by Kate Scott. She serves as the panel moderator and is regularly praised for her ability to manage the eccentric personalities on set.

Thierry Henry: Arsenal legend Thierry Henry is a lead analyst on the programme. Given his legendary history with Arsenal, his allegiances for the final will be clear.

Jamie Carragher: The former Liverpool defender is a staple of the broadcast team. He is renowned for his high-energy debates and for being the primary target of the rest of the crew's lighthearted teasing.

Micah Richards: The ex-Manchester City defender completes the panel. He is renowned for his infectious laugh and his "Big Meeks" persona, which frequently delivers the programme's most viral moments.

UK TV channel: The final will be televised live in the UK on the paid channels TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports Ultimate, while Virgin Media customers can access it for no extra cost on channel 526. The live broadcast will begin at 3pm, two hours before kick-off.

Streaming: Unlike in previous years, UK fans will not be able to watch for free on YouTube. To watch the action live online or on your mobile devices, you will need to stream it through the HBO Max app. However, viewers will not need a full sports subscription (which costs around £30 a month) as the match will be made available to viewers with a 'basic with ads' HBO Max package, which costs £4.99 per month.
