The European Championships in Germany will be shown on four channels. Commentator Wolff Fuss will be heard in an unusual environment. This is what TV viewers can expect: an overview of all channels and personalities.
At the home European Championship (June 14th to July 14th), football can be seen on four channels. The ARD is relying on proximity to the stadium at the tournament in Germany. This time the first is foregoing a studio in Cologne, as it still had at the 2022 World Cup. According to information from this editorial team, the plan is for Esther Sedlaczek and Alexander Bommes to take turns in moderation. They share the missions alongside expert Bastian Schweinsteiger.
This time the other experts are not sitting in a discussion group, but are being used as co-commentators. Thomas Broich, Almuth Schult and Thomas Hitzlsperger are among those scheduled. You comment alongside Tom Bartels, Gerd Gottlob and Christina Graf. It is still unclear who will take over the European Championship final in Berlin. Lea Wagner is scheduled to be the German team’s quarters in Herzogenaurach.
Sven Voss takes on this task for ZDF. He also conducts interviews with national coach Julian Nagelsmann at the German national team’s games. The second is expected to welcome viewers from a studio in Berlin with the moderation duo Katrin Müller-Hohenstein and Jochen Breyer. You are supported by the expertise of Per Mertesacker and Christoph Kramer. ZDF also relies on co-commentators like Hanno Balitsch. They are used with Oliver Schmidt, Claudia Neumann and Martin Schneider. Lena Kesting will conduct interviews at the games.
Wolff Fuss will also be heard on RTL
At RTL, Laura Wontorra takes over the main moderation in the studio. Florian König and Laura Papendick greet the spectators from the stadiums. Lothar Matthäus will be among the experts. Marco Hagemann and Steffen Freund comment.

Unusual: As part of a cooperation with MagentaTV, Wolff Fuss can also be heard on RTL – so far he has only appeared for the private broadcaster in formats such as “Big Bounce – The Trampoline Show”. This exchange of on-air faces goes even further: Wontorra can also be seen on MagentaTV broadcasts. Johannes B. Kerner will moderate there and will appear on RTL. Michael Ballack, Shkodran Mustafi and Tabea Kemme are scheduled to provide expertise at the Telekom platform. Fuss comments on the top games. Other voices include Jan Platte and Christian Straßburger. Jan Henkel takes over the tactical analysis.

The 51 European Championship games are divided as follows: ARD and ZDF each show 17 games. RTL will broadcast twelve matches. All 51 games are only shown on MagentaTV – five of them exclusively. The Germans’ appearances will be on free TV: against Scotland (June 14, ZDF, 9 p.m.), against Hungary (June 19, ARD, 6 p.m.) and against Switzerland (June 23, ARD, 9 p.m.). In the round of 16 and semi-finals, ZDF would have first access to a possible game of the Nagelsmann team, and in the quarter-finals and final, ARD would have first access.
