LIVESTREAM IFAF Men’s EC: Germany @ Great Britain, Oct. 19, 16:00 CET (4 pm, 10 am EDT)
Team Germany heads to Butts Arena in Coventry to face Great Britain in the second game of Group D in the 2024/2025 IFAF Men’s European Championship tournament.
Great Britain would have opened the 2025/25 tournament with a notable win away to Sweden, but the fifth seed Lions had two extra points blocked in a tough 20-19 defeat at the Sola Arena in Karlstad. Now they face the sleeping giant of European American football, a resurgent Germany, at Butts Arena in Coventry.
“Butts Park is a great venue, and seeing the crowds at Britbowl this last summer is proof that if we work together; the Britball community can do amazing things,” said GB head coach Jason Scott. “It would be incredible to get the nation behind us, supporting these fantastic athletes who have worked so hard all year. I’m hoping to see a loud, passion at crowd in Coventry on October 19.”

Three-time European champions Germany return after a 10-year absence from international competition and under the guidance of head coach Shuan Fatah aim to recapture former glories. Their last game at this level was in 2014, a 30-27 gold medal game victory over Austria.
“Now, we are at a turning point, ushering in a new era with talented new players,” says head coach Shuan Fatah. “We all understand the legacy we carry, and every player knows the responsibility that comes with wearing this jersey.
“I firmly believe that if there’s one nation whose players can handle pressure, it’s Germany. These athletes compete week after week on Europe’s biggest stages in front of the largest crowds. I’m confident that this pressure will only fuel our determination.”
The winners of each group advance to the final four in 2025. The semifinal and placement matchups will be determined by the highest seed facing the lowest seed in each of the three brackets.
