Telefonica has followed Vodafone Spain’s announcement that it will be
broadcasting the UEFA Champions League final exclusively in 4K Ultra HD
(UHD) by also communicating that it will be offering the match in the
higher resolution on its Movistar+ platform, albeit only via compatible
Samsung Smart TVs. The final will be held in Cardiff on 03 June and will
feature at least one Spanish team (Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid)
against Juventus or Monaco. Telefonica was the first operator to
broadcast a live football game in 4K in Spain back in November 2015 and
last year revealed that it was aiming to reach 1 million 4K customers on
the Movistar+ pay-TV network by 2018.
