UPDATE: Watch the final on Uefa TV here. In the end, the lack of a paid TV rights holder was a boon for fans in New Zealand, with Uefa livestreaming the match to Kiwis. The football body’s free livestream is geo-blocked in most territories.
An audacious back-heel semifinalgoal by Alessia Russo grabbed world attention during England’s Uefa Women’s Euro 2022 semifinal win over Sweden.
And now the Lionesses are set to face Germany in the final at Wembley in front of a sellout 90,000 crowd on Sunday in a match expected to smash broadcast viewership and streaming records.

The most obvious candidate was Spark Sport, given the telco recently trumpeted it had expanded its deal with Uefa to include the Euro 2024 and Euro 2028 competitions.
But the Women’s Euro 2022 “Is not included in the deal we have with Uefa”, a Spark spokeswoman said.
