Around the world, tens of thousands of soccer fans will be taking time off work on Wednesday in preparation for the biggest match of the year — the Champions League Final. Below we have news on which TV networks will be showing the Champions
League Final in the United States, United Kingdom and India.
In the United Kingdom, the Champions League Final will be shown live on ITV and Sky Sports. Here’s the schedule from ITV, which features an incredible five hours of coverage:

- Champions League Final, ITV1, 7-10pm BST
And here’s the schedule for Sky Sports 1:

In the United States, ESPN2 (and ESPN2 HD) will begin its broadcast at 2pm ET with a preview show, followed by the match which is scheduled to end at 5pm ET.
In India, the match will be shown live on television on TEN Sports beginning at 11pm local time.

Ten Sports is doing an all day marathon to promote the match. I’m watching it right now!
ESPN has for whatever reason opted to show cricket instead here at the 11 pm time slot.

God bless summer.
India?
No knock on Indians, I’m Indian. Do you have many Indian readers or something, I don’t see any other reason why you would put them on the site. Just wondering.
Jai Hind!
Betsy,
While I don’t have the stats in front of me, the site does get quite a lot of traffic from India. Maybe Kartik is hitting refresh on his browser to inflate the numbers? ; )
