To all the Football fans out there,
BT Sport has two huge football matches airing this week so I wanted to let you know where you can catch these games. BT will be airing the finals to both BT Sport subscribers and non-subscribers 😀
First, up will see Man United take on Villarreal in Uefa's Europa League final, played in Gdansk, Poland. Coverage will begin at 6.30 pm on Wednesday 26th May with the match build-up followed by kick-off at 8 pm. I have a particular interest in this game with being a lifelong Man United Fan 😁
Then on Saturday 29th May, you can watch Uefa's Champions League final which will see an all English final where Chelsea take on the Premiership champs in Manchester City which is being played in Porto, Portugal. Coverage will begin at 6 pm on Saturday with kick-off following at 8 pm.
Here is a list of where you can catch both games which is available to both BT Sport subscribers and non-subscribers

The BT Sport app will now also be available on Netgem boxes so Non-subscribers and subscribers can enjoy the finals there too. You can also catch the games on your PC or laptop, to do this click on this link BTsport.com and then click on 'Watch Live'.
Let's hope for two cracking games.

Worth mentioning that both games will be in HDR and Atmos where available too.
@SeanD Thanks for showing where the matches can be watched.. I noticed the timeline feature is available on some tv’s via the Bt App for subscribers and was wondering if this feature could be brought to the BT Sport channels in the future, or is it not possible even as a red button feature. Thanks in advance.

Good morning @Bluemoon1,
I have reached out to our BT sports team and have asked them if they have any plans to bring the timeline feature to our TV boxes. They have confirmed that there are no plans as of yet to introduce the timeline feature to BT TV boxes but this is something that may change in the future 😉
Cheers

I have the by sport app on my tv as i used to subscribe. I saw the final is free tonight, but I can't get into the app using my old password. will it work from 6 pm tonight or will I need to delete and download the app again
thanks
@SeanD I have bt ultimate subscription as part of my phone contract as well as Large screen addon. I've only ever seen atmos once. I've got my android tv (nvidia shield) connected directly to my soundbar. All other apps output atmos fine, just not bt sport. Has something changed on my account? I'm watching the final on ultimate right now and there's no atmos. Thanks
Edit to add - Even the app installed on my Samsung Tv doesn't cause the soundbar to output Atmos either
I'm sure the game was advertised as being in 4k HDR for free on YouTube, what happened to that, it's 1080p 30fps only as far as I can see even though the BT Sport Ultimate DOG is showing.
Hi, I'm surprised that BT isn't showing UCL Final in 4K on YouTube but did for Man Utd match on Wednesday night. Even though BT is advertising BT Sport Ultimate Live on it's YouTube channel, false advertising in my opinion.
Very disappointed, had to resort to watching it on my sky box in HD as no point watching it in HD on YouTube.
In fact, it's in the first post here lol, clearly says 4k on YouTube as the Europa League final was.
Maybe for the best that BT be are trying to offload their sport coverage as this nonsense doesn't make me want to subscribe one bit.
