The UEFA has a great website and I use it a lot. Last year, they posted video highlights of all Champions League games online. They also offered live commentary. These things aren’t unusual for the big sporting leagues but very nice for a fan who lives in North America where soccer is still nowhere on the radar screen.

I just found out today that the UEFA is also posting videos of entire champions league games online this year! Sure, it’s 90 minutes after the game and it costs $39US/year but that’s definitely worth it! It’s about time somebody clued in how to deal with sporting events online. There’s a real user need for live broadcasts of games. By delaying the broadcasts, TV revenues are protected and extra revenue is generated from subscriptions. Win/win. Can’t wait for tomorrow when Ajax plays Club Brugge.
