Since 2008, Sportschau begins at 18:00. As there is a contractual agreement that the Bundesliga may only be shown from 18:30, the program reports about the second and third leagues in the first half-hour.

Since January 2011, the Sportschau-App is available for Apple and Android devices.

Special broadcast

The ARD and the second public TV broadcaster ZDF show football matches of the Germany national team, DFB-Pokal as well as the FIFA World Cup, the UEFA European Championship, the DTM, winter sports and the Olympic Games in a special edition called Sportschau live.
