Live stream of the European League of Football: Rhein Fire

The European League of Football (ELF) will crown its 2024 champion this Sunday. The Rheinische Post will show the championship game live: defending champions Rhein Fire will face the Vienna Vikings. Kickoff is on Sunday, September 22nd, at 3:30 p.m., the broadcast begins 40 minutes earlier. You can watch the stream at the top of this article or here. You can find all the information about the final here.

Title holders of the past two years

In 2022, the Vienna Vikings won the title in their first ELF year. In the final, they beat the Hamburg Sea Devils (27:15). Last season, they missed the final after losing in the semifinals to Stuttgart Surge. If there had been a meeting with Fire: The Rhinelanders triumphed in the 2023 final against Stuttgart with 53:34 and were otherwise the first ELF team ever to defend their title.

Rhein Fire against Vienna Vikings – it is a meeting that has never happened before in three ELF seasons. This is also a shame because both teams have been the most successful since their arrival in the league in 2022. Vienna has won 34 of 36 regular season games since then, Rhein Fire 30. In the play-offs, the Vikings have a record of three wins and one loss, Fire 4-0. It was time for the two to finally face each other.

The Vienna Vikings have played their second perfect regular season in a row with twelve wins and no losses. Unlike last year, however, this time they also managed to win in the semifinals against the Paris Musketeers (47:31).

Rhein Fire had a bumpy start to the season and suffered a home defeat against Madrid Bravos on the third matchday. However, towards the end the team regained the dominance of the previous year and is in top form for the final.

Nobody. Both teams are in good shape, have no serious injuries and can play their best football. Everything is set for a great final.
