DStv Opens SuperSport Channels to Celebrate Arsenal’s Historic Premier League Triumph
Following Arsenal’s first Premier League title in 22 years, DStv has announced a special Open View window to celebrate the Gunners’ triumph and give more football fans in Nigeria access to the upcoming UEFA Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain.
Beginning Monday, May 25, DStv Access customers will enjoy extended coverage on SS Football Finals (channel 202) and SS Football (channel 205). GOtv Plus subscribers will also be included, with live broadcasts available on SS Football (channel 61).
In the days leading up to the final, the channels will showcase classic UEFA Champions League encounters alongside standout matches featuring Arsenal and PSG. On Saturday, May 30, live studio coverage will begin at 3:30 p.m., building up to the highly anticipated kick-off at 5 p.m.
Kemi Omotosho, Chief Executive Officer of MultiChoice Nigeria, a CANAL+ company, described the initiative as a way to share in the excitement of Arsenal’s achievement and the significance of the final for Nigerian fans.
‘Arsenal’s return to the summit of English football has sparked massive excitement among supporters in Nigeria, which is home to one of the club’s largest fan communities globally. As anticipation builds around a possible European triumph, this is our way of celebrating with customers while giving more fans the opportunity to be part of what could be another historic night,’ Omotosho said.
Arsenal were confirmed champions after Manchester City failed to defeat Bournemouth on Tuesday, ending the North London club’s 22-year wait for a Premier League crown.
The Gunners now turn their focus to Paris Saint-Germain as they aim to close the season with European silverware.
As part of the wider celebration, DStv will also open select Premier League fixtures on Sunday, May 24, including Crystal Palace vs Arsenal, Manchester City vs Aston Villa, Liverpool vs Brentford, and Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton.
From pre-match analysis to the final whistle and trophy presentation, SuperSport promises comprehensive coverage of the UEFA Champions League final, ensuring fans across Nigeria can share in the drama and spectacle of one of football’s greatest nights.
