Stan Sport rewards football fans with Australian streaming first

Australia’s home of UEFA football, Stan Sport, concludes its first season at the helm with the launch of a first-ever streaming in the country.

Fans can now watch UEFA Champions League and Europa League matches in 4K Ultra HD live and on-demand across supported devices.

“The addition of 4K Ultra HD streaming means Australia’s best sports streaming service just got better,” said Ben Kimber, Stan’s sporting director.

“We’re proud to lead the way as the first streaming service in Australia to offer live 4K sport, giving football fans the best way to watch the game they love.”

Stan Sport replaced Optus Sport as the broadcaster of UEFA competitions in Australia this season after winning a blind auction for the rights.

The arrival of the streaming service initially frustrated football fans as the sport’s broadcasting rights became further fragmented.

However, Stan Sport has won over many viewers with its heavy coverage, led by the likes of Max Rushden, Mark Bosnich and Craig Foster.

Both the Champions League and Europa League are in the quarter-finals, with the first legs being played this week.

On Wednesday morning, both Liverpool and Manchester City picked up victories against Benfica and Atletico Madrid respectively.

On Thursday, Villarreal host Bayern Munich while Chelsea host Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge. Both games start at 5am (AEST).

Stan’s additional Sports Pack is available here for $10 per month with free trials for new customers.
