Fans will also be able to watch all the other Bayer 04 Women's games live in the coming season: The DFB and partner Telekom have made a massive investment in raising the profile of the FLYERALARM Women's Bundesliga and are showing all the matches in the top-flight league for the first time live on Magenta Sport. In addition, as in the past, one game per matchday will be broadcast on Eurosport. ARD also has the right to show an additional live game per matchday as well as highlights. Beyond that, the broadcaster will also provide regular updates on Saturday games on the Sportschau and thereby integrate the FLYERALARM Women's Bundesliga into their programme over the long term.

2025/26 season review, part I: Upheaval, change, euphoria
Following the final match of the 2025/26 season, the prevailing feeling was naturally one of disappointment after missing out on qualification for the Champions League. The Werkself finished the Bundesliga in sixth place, meaning they'll start the 2026/27 campaign in the Europa League. "But to talk negatively about everything now because of that would be wrong," stressed captain Robert Andrich following the final game, knowing that the past year at Bayer 04 was marked, more than almost any other, by the start of a new era and the courage to change – and in particular, the belief in a positive direction. Everyone was aware this process would need time. The first part of the 2025/26 season review.
