Masters Football is finally back!

Yes, after an 11-year break, the all-star competition will be back on our screens for a one-off tournament on Friday 8th July.

There are plans to stage a full tournament next year but for the time being, supporters will have to settle for a one-day event that will see legends from Man Utd, Liverpool, Celtic, and Rangers take to the iconic blue turf at Braehead Arena in Glasgow with a sell-out crowd confirmed.

Formerly a Sky Sports staple, Masters Football has been resurrected on Sports 360 TV, a subscription streaming service dedicated to sports documentaries, and there have been minimal tweaks to the format we all know and love.

The six-a-side games will be eight minutes each way, with rolling subs, sin bins for yellow cards, and squads of eight players of 35 or over gracing the famous carpet.

The four teams, which boast the likes of Jamie Carragher, Louis Saha, Stiliyan Petrov, and Pedro Mendes in their ranks, will all play each other once before the top two sides scrap it out in the final.

More than a decade after it left our screens, Friday evening promises to be an exciting return for the iconic event.

RadioTimes.com brings you the complete guide to Masters Football including how to watch the tournament on TV and live stream.

When is Masters Football on?

The one-day event takes place on Friday 8th July at the Braehead Arena in Glasgow.

It all kicks off at 7:30pm.
