The NCAA Women’s basketball championship game is on Sunday. The University of Iowa Hawkeyes will take on the University of South Carolina Gamecocks in the final game of the 2024 women’s March Madness tournament.

Iowa, and its star player Caitlin Clark, narrowly beat Connecticut in the Final Four Friday evening, ultimately beating the Huskies 71-69 to advance to the finals. South Carolina beat North Carolina State 78-59 earlier Friday, securing their spot in the championship.

Clark, along with many other female athletes, has spurred the surging popularity of women’s college basketball.

Iowa’s Elite Eight win over Louisiana State University averaged 12.3 million viewers on ESPN, one of the most-viewed games in any sport besides NFL football in the last year, The Associated Press reported.

Headed out last-minute to catch it live? Here’s what a ticket might cost you.

Sunday’s final matchup will be played at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse, home of the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers, in Cleveland, Ohio.

The average ticket price for the women’s championship game has reached nearly $3,000.

If you aren’t heading to Cleveland to catch the game, here’s how to watch the NCAA women’s basketball finals.

The game will begin at 3 p.m. ET. tomorrow, Sunday, Apr. 7.

The championship game will be broadcast nationally on ABC.

ABC is available through most streaming services that have a live component, including Fubo, ESPN+, Hulu + Live TV and more.

Fubo offers a 7-day free trial for viewers who want to watch the game.

Cristiano Ronaldo cries only for himself – his preening for Portugal is inexcusable
“Inexplicable moments,” declared Cristiano Ronaldo, as portentously as you would expect from a man who earns £2.5 million for each Instagram message sent to his 633 million followers. It was perhaps the politest way he could have described his own performance during Portugal’s victory over Slovenia. A more fitting label, as you watched him designate every free-kick for himself and throw his arms about in disgust as Petar Stojanovic had the temerity to dispossess him, was “inexcusable”.
