Beyond football: movistar plus+ delivers a weekend of high-octane action
While LaLiga EA Sports undeniably commands significant attention on Movistar Plus+, subscribers are discovering a surprisingly robust slate of alternative sporting events. This weekend offers a compelling escape from the pitch, with motorsports and college basketball taking center stage—a welcome diversification for those seeking something beyond the familiar.
March madness: sweet sixteen showdowns
For basketball enthusiasts, the NCAA March Madness tournament is reaching its crucial Sweet Sixteen stage. A selection of games, available to miMovistar subscribers with the sports pack, promise intense competition. Saturday's early-morning lineup features St. John’s versus Duke (00:10 hours, Deportes 5), followed by Alabama battling Michigan (00:35 hours, Deportes 3). Michigan St. and UCONN will clash at 02:45 hours, and Tennessee faces Iowa St. at 03:10 hours, all broadcasting on Deportes 5 and Deportes 3 respectively. The excitement escalates with the Final Four on April 4th and the championship game on April 6th, accessible via Vamos por M+ and Vamos 3.
Worldwcr: female motorcycling championship kicks off
But the action doesn't stop there. Movistar Plus+ is also broadcasting the third edition of the WorldWCR, the female motocross world championship. The inaugural Grand Prix commenced today, March 27th, with Superpole qualifying taking place earlier. María Herrera, the reigning champion, is fiercely defending her title. The first race is scheduled for Saturday, March 28th at 12:50 hours, followed by the second race on Sunday at the same time, both airing on Vamos 3. The season culminates in Spain on October 18th at the Circuito de Jerez Ángel Nieto, marking a critical point in the championship chase.
The breadth of programming on offer underscores Movistar Plus+'s commitment to expanding its sports portfolio, particularly as it competes for subscribers. While a sports pack is required for some events, the platform clearly aims to cater to a diverse range of sporting tastes, proving there's far more than just football to be enjoyed.
