We're always looking for a live football tv app to watch games.
The football season is upon us. So is Africa's Premier club football competition. So, how do we watch the games of the competition?
The CAF Champions League is back, and you don't want to miss a second of your favourite teams in action.
If you're looking for a live football tv app to follow the games of the CAF Champions League in South Africa, look no further. We got you.
It is almost an extreme sport to follow top football on the continent, but if you've got a little dough to spare, we can point you in the right direction.
Top dogs of the CAF Champions League
Do you expect CAF to stream its matches live? Well, they won't. Africa's soccer ruling body needs money and is selling all its competitions. Arduous as it may sound to watch the CAF Champions League, here are a few pointers on a live football TV app you can use.
South Africa's Percy Tau will be again in action this season for CAF Champions League defending champions Al Ahly.
As usual, North African teams are highly favoured to win it again. The last seven competitions had the North Africans as winners – Al Ahly (3 times), Esperance (2), and Wydad Casablanca (2). Can the last South African team to win it (Mamelodi Sundowns) stop them? Will Orlando Pirates fly South Africa's flag high?
