Thanks for gathering up all of this info – very helpful? Do you have any dates for NWSL play-offs and championship game?
Not yet. But once they’re confirmed, we’ll be sure to update the TV schedule with the info.
According to https://www.prosoccerusa.com/nwsl/espnews-to-broadcast-six-nwsl-games-taking-over-select-lifetime-broadcasts/, NWSL championship game will be broadcast on Lifetime, 9/22, 4:30pm EDT.
Have you heard anything about the possibility of Women’s Premier League being broadcast in the U.S.?
We discussed it on an earlier podcast at https://soundcloud.com/worldsoccertalk/watching-womens-super-league-and-womens-champions-league-from-usa
Right now, select games are shown from time to time on club-specific Facebook pages, but that’s about it I believe.
Will the NWSL games be on TV in 2018, such as on Lifetime? and will they be available on streaming video, such as GO90.com?
One NWSL match each round on Lifetime on Saturdays, plus both semifinals (September 14-16, depending on venue availability) and Final on September 22. The rest will be streamed via Go90 app. 2nd year of 3-year contract. Vista Worldlink (Dania Beach, Florida) is handling all productions for NWSL.
NWSL is down to 9 teams after investors of Boston Breakers pulled out. FC Kansas City was acquired by the Real Salt Lake organization and has been renamed the Utah Royals. The Utah Royals will play at Real Salt Lake stadium in Sandy, Utah.
FC Barcelona, long-rumored to be interested in operating an NWSL team in San Jose, California, did not pull the trigger over the NWSL offseason. FC Barcelona officials have been interested in opening a youth academy in Silicon Valley ever since former FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta visited Stanford University for a guest lecture in 2007.
So the other day I am on Twitter and look at the replies to a commentators Tweet, one of them was bizarre rambling acting like they know the guy and making predictions, so I click on the profile and wouldn’t you know, it was you!
Women are playing a credible game of professional soccer. Yet, it still has broken through in terms of mass viewership and attendance.
Just watched England v France on ESPN3 and I won’t be watching anymore games in the She Believes Cup. Not only does the monotonic commentary send me to sleep but there is also the added crowd sound effects when replaying goal area incidents. The TV viewing experience is dreadful.
Turn off the sound.
No Spanish broadcasters?
Not at this time.
Thank you for that important information
Are Any matches from the Womens AFC Asian Cup tournament being broadcast in the US? Its the qualifying finals in Asia for the Womens World Cup 2019 featuring Australia, Japan, Korea and China?
Brig, as far as we know, the games won’t be televised in the United States. Your best bet may be to check with the Facebook page for the tournament to see if they plan on live streaming the games to viewers worldwide.
Hi Chris,
Thanks for your reply. I have checked and can’t find live streaming of the matches, just some highlights…Maybe in 2022?
Hi⚽️⚽️USA womens soccer rocks!
Thanks for the info on US Women’s team….. difficult to find anywhere……. the TV schedule is especially valuable… we love their game.
Now that Go90 is down, how would I watch NWSL games besides the weekly game on ESPNNews?
I would recommend checking out NWSLsoccer.com for the games (or news about their coverage plans).
Hi Chris,
The womens W league in Australia season just kicked off Thursday 25th October and some matches are being shown on ESPN+. Most teams feature some US players, internationals as well as Australian International players. It would be great to see matches listed on World Soccer Talk 🙂 ?Thanks Brig
Women’s World Cup qualifying matches between Netherlands and Switzerland on 11/9 and 11/13? Any suggestion where to watch?
There are no plans to broadcast the games in the US. Your best bet would be to check the Facebook pages or websites for those federations to see if they plan on streaming the games directly.
What channel does this come on on Sling Blue? Do I need to add channels?
Nevermind. I didn’t realize it said FS1. Thanks for the info!!
Thanks for this info! A couple of typo’s – Under “semi finals” – Tuesday, June 2: Game 45 winner vs. Game 46 winner (Women’s World Cup), 3pm,… should be JULY 2, right?
Also, what is the date for the 3rd place match? July 6th?
Thanks again!
Thank you!
Can someone help, please: First time watching the world cup from the US, so please tell me this isn’t true: I was told that Fox / FS1 have ad-breaks DURING the match, i.e. when there isn’t a break, like at half-time. Can’t be, can it?
No ad breaks during the game itself.
When are the commentator assignments out?
Today
Here are the commentator assignments for the Women’s World Cup:
http://worldsoccertalk.com/2019/06/04/womens-world-cup-commentators-group-stage-fox-sports/
Fox Sports is going to spoil the viewing experience if they bring back it’s rules analyst ”Dr.” Joe Machnik to analyze the play/game. I’m sure many remember him from the 2018 FIFA World Cup and the disaster we had to endure for the entire month last year. I’m guessing Fox is going to hire it’s domestic crew for commentary, they’re not going to use the world feed. God help us.
I think Machnik is doing the Gold Cup only this year. Christina Unkel is FOX Sports’ FIFA Women’s World Cup™ rules analyst.
Under the August 31 game – France v Spain – it says beIN Sports is the channel and also lists Hulu + Live TV as a streaming option. But I don’t believe Hulu does offer that channel.
You are correct. I’ll remove that link right now.
Anybody wanting to watch FAWSL games should check out the FAplayer website and apps.
Aside from Bein Sports covering PSG games, is there any coverage of Women’s Champions League in US? There’s nothing on B/R live or ESPN+ and there’s no access to Eurosport here which shows live games. Any ideas?
Select games from smaller continental European clubs are shown via mycujoo. But it appears that the other games are available on a club-by-club basis. Unfortunately, the vast majority of them are not available to viewers in the United States.
FC Barcelona Women’s matches are on Youtube in Spanish to include todays Champion’s League match against Juventus.
Might I suggest adding broadcast info from onesoccer.ca as well? They livestream some Primer Iberdola matches as well.
Our TV and streaming listings are for US only.
Thanks for compiling this! FOX Sports may have picked up the 2020 CONCACAF broadcasts per Grant Wahl on Twitter:
https://twitter.com/GrantWahl/status/1221443384608509953
Can you guys put up the correct logo. Should be a 4 star USA logo. Come on!
Thank You Fox for picking up CONCACAF.
Will ESPN+ cover the Women’s FA Community Shield game – Chelsea v. Man City? It’s a double-header with the Men’s Arsenal v. Liverpool game. ESPN+ lists the latter game but not the Women’s.
ESPN+ should show it! If not, do you know if it will be available on the FA Player?
FA Player would be the best bet right now. In the UK, the BBC has the rights to game. But it’s usually a last minute decision when it comes to the FA Player, so I would recommend checking there on Saturday. Unfortunately, the FA doesn’t do a good job at promoting what games they have on FA Player.
ESPN+ has acquired the rights to the Women’s Community Shield:
https://twitter.com/worldsoccertalk/status/1298695172109275136
Fantastic! Thanks for the update.
As far as I know, you can still see a replay of the FA Community Shield women’s game on the FA Player website under Archive.
Thanks – Do you have a schedule for the Women’s Super League games on TV in the US? It’s so hard to find women’s soccer!!
NBCSports holds rights to WSL, at least for this year and are showing not all, but a lot of the games. Also, FA Player online shows WSL games. Enjoy!
I should have said “holds the US rights to WSL.”
It would be nice if you included all the leagues and streaming platforms like Nadeshiko’s, Bundesliga’s, LaLiga Feminil, Spain’s etc. Include platforms like FAPlayer, YouTube, Cujoo, Twitch, etc. I just realized Nadeshiko were on YouTube. I’ve not found a good listing with all women’s games -but LiveSoccerTv usually has major channels and USWNT- it would be good for someone to host a list of all leagues.
We’re planning on expanding the listings in the near future to include many more leagues and games.
Where can you watch the USWNT games in the USA? I missed the recent game vs Netherlands and cant find it anywhere, is the USWNT on CBS All Access?
The game against the Netherlands was on ESPN2. USWNT friendlies tend to be on the ESPN family of networks (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNNEWS, etc.). CONCACAF competitions that the USWNT plays in (for example, CONCACAF Women’s Olympic Qualifiers) are broadcast on the FOX family of networks (FOX, FS1, FS2, etc.) because FOX own the tv rights to CONCACAF competitions (Gold Cup, Champions League, etc.). The FIFA Women’s World Cup is also broadcast on the FOX networks.
Hope this helps 🙂
Do you know if the rights to Women’s UEFA Champions League have been picked up in the US yet? CBS All Access aired the final few rounds of last years delayed championship. Has there been any news that they will pick up 2020-21 season? Chelsea, Lyon, Juve games start week of 12/14/20.
Nothing has been announced yet.
Still no update on U.S. rights for Women’s UCL? Starts in 2 days. If no rights are sold, are the games aired on uefa.tv?
This looks like best option to watch Women’s Champions League in US and maybe other countries. https://wnited.redbee.live/
UEFA Women’s Champions League game between Górnik Łęczna and PSG will be on beIN SPORTS Connect on Thursday, Dec. 10 at 11AM ET.
this is so frickin awesome thank you for this, womens soccer is hard to access most of the time so thank you for supporting the game. you are very appreciated.
thank you christopher harris. you rock!
BEIN Sports usually carries the Tournoi de France – which recently got canceled this year due to Covid. However BEIN Sports will carry the two friendlies between France and Switzerland this coming Saturday and Tuesday. Generally BEIN Sports is very good (or better than anyone else in the USA) about carrying France’s matches that aren’t being carried on mainstream media. Sometimes they also carry some of the semifinal and final UEFA CHampions League matches. Also, ou can watch all of the Lyon women’s D1 matches by subscribing to OLPlay through the Olympique Lyonnais website (www.ol.fr) for 2.99 euros (about $3.75) a month. OLPlay has a complete library of full matches going back several years. The commentary is is French. During covid they are not pumping in crowd noise so you can hear the coaches and players – which I prefer.
Great info. Thanks, John.
Any news about US rights for UEFA Women’s Champion’s League? The matches resume Wed., March 3. If no US rights picked will games be shown on http://www.uefa.tv?
Rights are held by the home team, so we can expect to see the PSG games on beIN SPORTS, while the other clubs may have games on their club websites as well as social media.
This Saturday’s (3/13,/21) D1 match between Olympique Lyonnais and PSG will be on ESPN+. Today’s (3/9/21) PSG Women’s Champions League match with Sparta Praha will be on WUnited today with a replay BEIN Sports tomorrow night.
Any news on whether CBS, NBC (who recently showed WSL games on NBCSN) or other network will pick up UEFA Women’s Champions League Final Sunday, May 16? It’s Chelsea v Barca.
No news yet. We’re expecting someone to pick up the rights this week.
Paramount+ has picked up the rights to air the UEFA Women’s Champions League Final.
Both the U.S. Men and Women National Soccer games should be available on local channels accessible to all the public. If you want to promote soccer this must be done. There is no reason that any contracts with the streaming networks can’t include this as a requirement. Please try and push this basic suggestion to help the national soccer teams.
