After setting the screens alight during the recent Women’s World Cup, our beloved Matildas are back in action.
The Barclays Women’s Super League is launching its fresh season on October 1. What’s more, every electrifying moment of this season can be caught live on Optus Sport.
Up first, Aston Villa face a formidable challenge against Manchester United. Fans down under can catch this exciting encounter at 10:30pm AEDT.
Of our national heroes, 10 have found their footballing homes in the Super League:
- Chelsea boasts the phenomenal Sam Kerr.
- Arsenal proudly fields Caitlin Foord, Steph Catley, and Kyra Cooney-Cross.
- Teagan Micah is with Liverpool.
- Mackenzie Arnold wears the West Ham United badge.
- Leicester City signed up Courtney Nevin.
- Everton welcomes Clare Wheeler.
- Manchester City has both Alanna Kennedy and Mary Fowler in their ranks.
With all eyes fixed on superstar Sam Kerr and her team, Chelsea, their title defence starts with a bang against their London adversaries, Tottenham Hotspur. The Spurs might recall the double defeat from Chelsea last season, which played a crucial part in Chelsea narrowly edging out Manchester United for the top spot.
Optus Sport doesn’t stop at live broadcasts. Subscribers can relish in condensed matches, game previews, fresh news updates, and a tailored highlights package encapsulating every season’s best bits.
Howard Rees, Head of Optus Sport said,
“Optus Sport is proud of its long-standing support of women’s football and the reception and record-breaking engagement we experienced during the recent Women’s World Cup cemented the Matildas’ status as box office viewing.
Now with many Matildas returning to domestic action in England, we’re expecting interest in women’s football to continue to rise throughout the Barclays Women’s Super League season with what promises to be more essential viewing.”
The new football season in England promises to be a thrilling spectacle, especially with our Matildas in the mix, and Optus Sport is the place to be for all the action.
