Portugal will be looking to defend the championship status that they won in a thrilling final against France back in 2016. However, that will definitely be a tall order as teams like England, Belgium and France are packed with world-class players who have proven themselves at their respective football clubs over the years.

Speaking about the addition, MultiChoice CEO for General Entertainment and Connected Video, Yolisa Phahle, says, “We know that Africa is football mad, and we’re thrilled that more people will be able to stream the matches on the go or at home.”

SuperSport chief executive Marc Jury says, “Being able to offer this high-class tournament to sports fans on the Showmax streaming platform is an exciting addition to the many SuperSport platforms that offer viewers top-tier sport.”
