The Professional Football League can blow, the launch of its 100% Ligue 1 channel which took place Friday evening was positive. With as the first match of the season, an enticing Rennes-Marseille with a twist scenario and concluded with a Breton victory (1-0), Ligue 1+ made a copy rather well rated by his subscribers. Encouraging for the future.

There was waiting and questions around the project set up this summer after the separation of the LFP with Dazn, broadcaster last season. Friday on Friday, journalists and technicians (almost) all made a quality copy. This is at least what users of this brand new channel have said. Whether on social networks where on different sites, their comments were very largely positive.

“Frankly, 2-3 very small things not phew, but really much better than Dazn, Telefoot and Cie”for example wrote this user. A message that sums up many others in the same tone. Some unfortunate users all the same: those who have taken their subscription via Amazon Prime Video. A technical problem with private and post-match private aces.

Ligue 1+, first rather conclusive experience

But overall, the experience was conclusive. “I really liked it, it makes me think of Amazon. “Honestly, I compare a lot to last season, I find it very clean. Maybe the consultants are struggling a bit, but it's much better than last season. »» Or this other comment: “I found it correct, see more than correct. »»

The season is now launched and all the teams in the channel will quickly take its marks and improve what can be. This Saturday, three games on the program including a promising Lens-Lyon at 5 p.m., followed by Monaco-Le Havre (7 p.m.) and Nice-Toulouse (9 p.m.).
