Anyone who wants to watch football on free TV at no extra cost has regular opportunities to do so, especially on ARD, ZDF, and RTL. These public broadcasters broadcast not only selected DFB Cup matches and all German national team matches at major tournaments, but also numerous UEFA Women's EURO 2025 matches live. This puts women's football in the spotlight for a broader audience – and gives it a prime-time platform that absolutely does justice to the level of the sport.
In addition, Sat.1 broadcasts individual Bundesliga matches, such as the opening game, the final match of the first half of the season, and the start of the second half of the season. RTL, in turn, broadcasts matches from the UEFA Europa League and the Conference League. ARD's third-party channels also regularly offer football broadcasts, particularly from the 3. Liga.
DAZN is one of the leading streaming services for live sports and offers football fans a comprehensive program with top international matches. Highlights include almost all UEFA Champions League matches and selected Bundesliga matches. DAZN also broadcasts Europe's top leagues, including Spain's LaLiga, Italy's Serie A, and France's Ligue 1. Those who want to access the full offering require a paid subscription. In addition to football, DAZN also covers numerous other sports – from the NBA and NFL to motorsports and martial arts events. This makes the platform a particularly popular destination for fans of diverse sports broadcasts.
Sky remains one of the most important sources for live football in Germany. The pay-TV channel not only broadcasts a large portion of Bundesliga matches, but also covers the entire DFB Cup – from kick-off to the final. This means Sky offers both league action and cup drama from a single source. The cup is especially worth checking out: exciting matches, upsets, and gripping knockout duels are a regular feature.
Sky also has a strong international presence: With live matches from the English Premier League, the broadcaster boasts one of Europe's most well-known and highly viewed leagues in its portfolio. The offering can be received either via the traditional Sky subscription or flexibly via WOW, the company's own streaming service. Sky remains indispensable, especially for Bundesliga fans – the popular Saturday conferences and many top weekend matches can be seen exclusively there. Whether on traditional TV or via mobile live stream, Sky remains a fixture in the German football experience.
MagentaSport has established itself as a major player in German sports streaming – especially for those who appreciate football beyond the big screen. The Deutsche Telekom service broadcasts all 3. Liga matches and all Women's Bundesliga matches live and in full. Thus, MagentaSport offers a broad platform for professional football below the Bundesliga and 2. Liga – and also gives women's football a continuous presence in live programming.
But the offering goes beyond football: International highlights such as the Ice Hockey World Championship and major basketball tournaments are also part of the portfolio. Access is tied to a paid subscription, although Telekom customers can often benefit from special tariffs or promotional offers.
