"It meant that when Cecilia Salvai headed Juventus level against Benfica in the first half of Disney's first game replays showed four angles, accompanied by the words of a polished Jacqui Oatley and Anita Asante. That commentary duo were among several good examples of what Disney appear to has nailed. It has chosen on-air talent with knowledge and professionalism that give the coverage credibility, with experienced broadcasters such as Lucy Ward, Lianne Sanderson and Vicki Sparks on a long list of strong names."
"Football-wise, whether it was Barcelona's masterpiece, Twente holding Chelsea or Melchie Dumornay's second goal arrowing past the Arsenal defence, the entertainment level was thankfully more Mulan than Mulan II, but could the same be said about the coverage? In terms of broadcasting the on-pitch action, there was a noticeable uplift with a minimum of six cameras covering every match, double the minimum under the previous rights deal with Dazn."
Disney+ began a five-year rights deal for live Women's Champions League matches behind a paywall. Broadcast production improved with a minimum of six cameras per match, double the previous requirement, providing clearer replays and more angles. Commentary and presenting teams include experienced broadcasters such as Jacqui Oatley, Anita Asante, Lucy Ward, Lianne Sanderson, Vicki Sparks and Jeanette Kwakye, lending credibility to the coverage. Entertainment on the pitch remained high with notable performances from Barcelona, Twente, Chelsea, Melchie Dumornay and others. Presentation setups at some venues appeared underdeveloped, with pitchside tables and background distractions undermining a fully polished broadcast look.
