With the England national football team hot favourites to take out the UEFA EURO 2020 tournament and bring the nation its first piece of silverware in 55 years, Optus Sport is giving Brits the opportunity to tune in for free.
Optus Sport, which is primarily built around its football offering, has exclusive rights to the tournament in Australia, meaning local football fans must subscribe to the streaming service to watch the matches.
Now, with two semi-finals and the final remaining, Optus Sport is bringing the upcoming matches in front of the paywall.
The first free match will be Italy vs Spain tomorrow morning, followed by England vs Denmark on Friday.
The two winners will play in the final next Monday morning.
“We have had our greatest ever month on Optus Sport with the best of the best competing in the UEFA EURO 2020 and Copa America 2021 tournaments and we still have the biggest matches of the tournament to go,” Head of TV and Content Corin Dimopoulos said.
“With the likes of Harry Kane and Lorenzo Insigne to be in action across the Euro finals, all Australians can now watch these three live matches on Optus Sport for free without a subscription.
“We recognise that a lot of the country is currently restricted when it comes to going round to friends’ houses or to a venue to watch games together, and we are therefore pleased to provide as many Australians as we can with the opportunity to enjoy the last three tournament games in the comfort of every home.”
