unnamed Taiwanese mobile giant HTC has launched a new Android app for European football fans.

HTC FootballFeed serves up the latest goal data and stats from both the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League in real-time, delivering team news, live match updates with a rolling feed for each match, post-game analysis, and more. The interface is based on HTC’s BlinkFeed homescreen, which basically means it’s customizable so users can follow the teams and games they’re interested in most.

HTC is one of the official sponsors for both football tournaments, and the data comes in real-time directly from UEFA and HTC. The new app is available for all Android smartphones (not just HTC) across Europe now.
