Europe : Football fans from the UK will be able to watch video highlights of the UEFA Champions League on their 3 video mobiles.

Thanks to a deal with UEFA, anyone on the 3 video mobile network will be able to watch highlights of the UEFA Champions League, from the group stages right through to the final.

3's service will not only show near live goals and major match incidents, but will also offer text alerts and team news.

Under the three year agreement signed with UEFA, 3 customers will be able to see the latest action within minutes, or wait to watch the highlights of the whole game soon after the final whistle.

3 now offers the most comprehensive mobile football service in the UK - with video highlights from both the UEFA Champions League and Premiership, as well as all the news from the other Leagues across the UK. These highlights are free to any customers who sign up to a VideoTalk price plan on 3 before the end of September.

Gareth Jones, Chief Operating Officer, 3 said: "For fans of the teams involved in this year's campaign, this service is a real winner. But even if you're a neutral or your team didn't make it through - and as a Leeds fan I can share the pain - there'll be masses of un-missable action.

"This deal cements 3's status as the home of football on the move - we're the only network offering the latest video action from both the Premiership and UEFA Champions League. Our football news and clips service is one of our most popular services with customers, and adding UEFA Champions League content gives another dimension to what's already the most comprehensive football round-up available on a mobile phone."
