Euro 2012 TV schedule

Euro 2012 will begin on Saturday, June 9 (AET) and is being broadcast on Setanta Sports on Foxtel and Austar, while SBS will be broadcasting selected matches on delay, and daily highlights at 5:30PM on SBS Two. Four Euro 2012 matches are scheduled to be broadcast live on free-to-air television.

We’ve compiled a Euro 2012 TV Schedule based upon the information currently available.

In the group phase each of the four groups will be playing their final match simultaneously, meaning that Setanta will be able to only show one match of each of the groups’ final matches live.

We have all the updated information as we can and will endeavour to update this page with TV guide details.

Similarly, while SBS have announced their intention to broadcast live two of the four quarter-finals and one of the semi-finals, they have not yet specified which of the quarter-finals/semi-finals they will choose to broadcast.

Euro 2012 Articles

Are the Spanish football team boring?

by Feras, 5 Nov 2012

It is unbelievable, at least to myself, that there have been quite a few rumblings complaining the Spanish national football team are boring to watch. Huh? Has their mesmerising passing brand of football really become boring to watch? Back in 2008, when they were first crowned European Champions, Spain were hailed as an attacking, entertaining, [...]

United, Berba and sexy football

by Aleks Duric, 19 Jul 2012

Now that Euro Polkraine is well and truly behind us it’s time to look forward to the 2012/13 English Premier League. Last season was a classic, providing more twists and turns than a Labor leadership spill, with a final day climax bigger than anything in Ron Jeremy’s impressive resume. As a devotee to the Church [...]

Football’s break won’t stop merry-go-round

by wisey_9, 6 Jul 2012

Last Sunday, July 1, was an important date in every football fan’s diary. But with the end of the Euro 2012 final, the last competitive ball has been kicked in anger for seven weeks. The footballing feast that Spain served up to Italy in the Euro 2012 final was a marvelous spectacle for Spanish fans [...]

Best-ever Spain crushes Italy 4-0 in Euro 2012 final

by Graham Dunbar, 2 Jul 2012

Certainly the best in the world and maybe the best ever. Definitely not boring. Spain opened a fresh debate on their place in world football history after sweeping to a majestic 4-0 victory over Italy in the European Championship final on Sunday. For the third consecutive major tournament, Spain’s outstanding goalkeeper and captain Iker Casillas [...]

Why Italy lost Euro 2012

by tonysalerno, 2 Jul 2012

With everyone writing about how Spain won, I decided to go against the grain and write about why Italy lost. Italy’s European championship campaign came to an abrupt end with a 4-0 drubbing at the hands of Spain. Italy was outplayed, outclassed and outmatched by a superior Spanish outfit. But why was Spain so clinical [...]

After a month of competition, we’ve finally reached the final of EURO 2012 and it will be between Group C opponents Spain and Italy. Three weeks after they contested a 1-1 draw in the group stage, the two will meet again and this time it’s for all the marbles. Whilst the majority of people expected [...]

Coach Prandelli changes the Italian perception

by abishara, 2 Jul 2012

Former Fiorentina coach Cesare Prandelli has given Italy’s Azzurri a new look and feel. Their run to the Euro 2012 final is all down to that one man. For those who know or have watched Italy over the last 50 years of football, there is one perception that summarised the Italians: boring, defensive, dull. Yet [...]

Italy beats Germany to reach Euro final

by AP, 30 Jun 2012

Mario Balotelli finally showed some quality finishing, scoring twice in the first half on Thursday to give Italy a 2-1 win over Germany and an unexpected spot in the European Championship final. Extending their winless streak against Italy in major tournaments to eight matches, Germany had no answer for Balotelli nor Antonio Cassano’s creativity. In [...]

Spain already among the great teams of football

by abishara, 30 Jun 2012

Hungary 1950s. Brazil 1970. Germany 1972-76. Holland 1974. Argentina 1986-90. France 1998-2000. These are the greatest international teams that the world has produced. A new nation deserves to be added by the end of the European Championship. Regardless of the result against Italy, La Roja deserve their rightful place alongside the international greats. Win or [...]

  Unfortunately, you won’t be watching Greece on SBS. And I won’t be watching Italy playing England. Still, the small number of French, Czech, Portuguese and Spanish residing in this country will have their home countries to watch.
  Too bad for the huge number of Italians, Greeks, Germans and English that live here. I’m finding out about how to watch the games online. I poo on the bias that SBS often shows, especially towards the ‘poms’. Shame on you!!

    Can only agree SBS must have had a lobotomy to the frontal lobe – cater to 10% of migrants in Australia rather than the 80% – why not do all the quarters or is it the usual case $$$ more important than fan.

  It is called the free market. The Euro tournament
  is not on the anti-siphoning list so SBS and all
  the other networks have to stand on their own to feet. The
  Coverage goes to the highest bidder the
  way it should be!
  Pretty sure all games are live on Foxtel, which is great!
  So join up.

    No, is not broadcasted on Foxtel Sport, only on Setanta, as a separate subscription.
    Still, SBS should hang the head in shame, after their putrid bragging of ‘free broadcasting’, 4 miserable delayed games, given for free by other TV’s.

I agree 100% Hummel. It’s very poor and the fact they have been promoting that they will show 4 games delayed and 4 lives is another joke. The 4 games delayed will be shown 2 days later. That’s not delayed that’s a replay. Where in 2012 not in 1950.

Just realised how poor euro 2012 coverage will be on SBS. Nothing on fox either, its setanta or nothing!!! We are talking about the biggest football event outside the WC! What a shame! And SBS dare say that they are ‘covering the event’!??? Utter disrespect of all football fans living in the country, thats what it is.

People from far beyond Europe tune in to watch the final of the UEFA Champions League, arguably the most competitive football tournament in the world. But there’s a problem.
