What is on the playlists?
Playlists have been created for the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Women's Champions League and UEFA Europa League, featuring the official competition anthems and plenty more besides. A UEFA Women's EURO playlist will soon be released to mark the road to the competition in England this summer.
On the UEFA Champions League playlist, keep that #UCLFeeling going with the official playlist which features footballing anthems and stadium-filling classics.
