Sounds like it's Bundesliga themselves who've done the work, and AWS are sponsoring it.

https://www.dfl.de/en/news/bundesliga-and-amazon-web-services-to-develop-next-generation-football-viewing-experience/

I'm not sure I describe getting a computer to notify you when it thinks the next goal is going to be scored based on statistics, or giving you better recommendations on what matches to watch is really a "next generation experience".

Grr not looking forward to the Olympics partly being on Eurosport as their player's app refuses to load on my tv - it's only a Samsung 2015 model but it simply goes white when clicked on and then freezes requiring the TV to be rebooted.

Eurosport through amazon gets the servies but no names on each service.

I’m sure you’ve got time to buy a streaming device.

Pretty sure the Eurosport player has been updated at least twice since 2015 so no surprise it doesn't work

The streams aren't labelled through Prime no matter what you're watching on. Nothing learnt from previous tournaments in that respect.

Prime itself labels it's own streams but not the eurosport ones.

Same here - mines a year or two older but Eurosport Player just stopped working a couple of years ago and rather than remove it they've left the dormant version on there.


A firestick is the easiest alternative.

Yes that's what I meant. Apparently Eurosport don't provide the data.

Whilst I’m not the slightest bitter about the result of the match yesterday (United fan), the match peaked at 3.9M and was the second highest rating ever for Sky Sports. I believe the figures account for both Main Event and Premier League channels. Not bad, probably even more if you take into account pub figures and those watching illegally.
