Paywall Fiasco: Champions League Final's Free to Air Era Ends The Champions League final will soon be inaccessible to casual viewers without a subscription to TNT Sports, marking the first time in over three decades that football fans won't be able to watch the prestigious competition for free.
This sudden shift has left many scratching their heads, particularly those accustomed to watching the tournament on ITV or BT Sport.
TNT Sports' decision to charge for the final is reportedly at odds with Uefa's "best endeavours" clause, which aims to ensure the finals are available for all to see.
