Final Score is a BBC Television football news and results programme produced by BBC Sport. The programme is broadcast on late Saturday afternoons in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, usually on BBC One. BBC Northern Ireland opts away during the last ten minutes to cover local results. BBC Scotland runs a different programme altogether – Sportscene Results. Final Score is also broadcast on Boxing Day, New Year's Day and sometimes on either Good Friday or Easter Monday. A special Sunday edition is broadcast on the final day of the Premier League season.
Final Score is also broadcast on Saturday afternoons on the BBC Red Button and online for two hours before the BBC One broadcast begins. An additional half-hour was also broadcast live on BBC World News, the BBC's internationally broadcast news channel, but this was discontinued from the 2015–16 season.
It is a rival show to Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday, which started its Saturday afternoon football scores service in 1998. It's other rival came with BT Sport Score, which launched in 2016.
The programme, predominately presented by Jason Mohammad, provides viewers with the results from the main football league matches played on that day. The presenters is joined by two studio pundits discussing the day's play whilst watching the FA Premier League games in the studio and this is supplemented by reporters at all of the Premier League matches. There are also reporters at the Football League Championship matches and at the top games in League 1 and League 2, as well as at at least one Scottish Professional Football League game. The programme includes interviews with managers, players and studio pundits.
