Quality football coverage keeps fans fully informed and up to date on the latest action both on and off the pitch. The Guardian covers the beautiful game every day of the year – in liveblogs, match reports and our Football Weekly podcast – so that you’re fully briefed on transfers, fixtures, goals and results.
Importantly, we also dig into the uglier side of Big Football – issues such as sportswashing, abuse, corruption, and of course, *that* kiss.
And because we care about our readers, we have banned gambling advertising alongside our sports journalism. So everyone, young and old, can enjoy the game without being hassled to bet on the result.
Instead, why not invest in us? If the Guardian’s approach to journalism appeals to you, make a transfer of your own. You can do so on a monthly basis. It takes less than a minute to set up. Thank you.
