How to watch the Champions League online
If you want to watch all the Champions League football and you don’t plan to do it in front of the television, you will also have to be a Movistar or Orange client and use their applications to watch the channels of their TV platforms away from home on any device, mobile or tablet, connected to the Internet via WiFi or data.
In the first case, download the Movistar Plus+ application, enter your login data and, if you have contracted a rate that includes the Champions League, you will be able to watch the channel you want, Champions League by M+ in the case of FC Barcelona o Champions League 2 by M+ for Atlético de Madrid.
If you’re from Orange, you can also download its own Orange TV app, which also includes Movistar Plus+ channels to watch football, as long as you’re a client of a rate like Love Fútbol or Love Fútbol Total. Like the previous one, it is available on both iOS and Android.
