tonight at 8pm, the Copa Libertadores finale from Montevideo, Uruguay.

Live on the BBC iplayer, should be a good un.

Cant find it on the iplayer

Not 8 yet

Its definitely there

Match of the Day Live, 2021 Copa Libertadores Final: Palmeiras v Flamengo: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0b6jwjk via @bbciplayer

Search is useless, but going through categories/sport, it shows up.

If anyone wants to watch, search Swimming on BBC iplayer and it's streaming there..

Anybody else getting “starting shortly” when trying to watch?

Tried on both firestick and on smart tv with same result

rubbish quality on the pitch so far

Can I take it that it’s not worth me dragging myself up to the study and watching it on my desk top?

Not that I’m feeling lazy or anything

I was on that, but when tried to play it was only saying “starting shortly” sldespite it being 20mins into the game

Looking at the Twitter comments, it was only playing via the BBC website, so was casting from my phone to TV

Just checked the smart tv app and it is now playing

No not really

Like most “big” games, the build-up/anticipation has been more exciting than the actual game (although admittedly I did only the the last 20mins of the first half)

Gabigol is no joke

looking at his stats he scores plenty in Brazil but was an abject failure in Europe. I don't watch South American footy (I didn't even know there was a game until you posted), I wasn't impressed by a single player, maybe it was just a really poor example/game
