Disney+ Calls Arsenal-HBK Koge Advert Break Unintended
· Sports · BBC Sport
Disney+ said the three-minute advert break shown during Tuesday's second half of Arsenal versus HBK Koge was an unintended technical interruption. Arsenal and HBK Koge were level 0-0 when the broadcast was cut off, and Disney+ later said it was taking steps to prevent a repeat. The disruption followed other production problems, including players unable to hear studio questions, a rotating floor, obstructed camera views and audio synchronisation faults. Disney+ also aired a vegetable platter, a dog with 137,000 Instagram followers and a non-football quiz about pasta and Italy's biggest city. The Women's Champions League match was part of Disney+'s second season covering the competition, with matches produced by ESPN.
Why it matters
Arsenal viewers saw the match interrupted at 0-0, while HBK Koge and the players faced a disrupted broadcast. Disney+ must address production faults across its Women's Champions League coverage.
