Five Minutes Before Kickoff

  1. Open the app for your channel and log in.
  2. Connect to Wi-Fi, because a full game uses several gigabytes of mobile data.
  3. Charge the phone or plug it in.
  4. Keep a second app or a radio broadcast as a backup.
Warning: Official apps never need your card number just to show you a schedule. Close any page that asks for it before the game starts.

Conclusion

The right app is the one that matches your channel. Check today’s game at the top, install the matching app, and test it before kickoff.
