Match of the Day (abbreviated to MOTD) is a football highlights programme, typically broadcast on BBC One on Saturday nights, during the Premier League season.[8][1] The current presenter is former England international striker Gary Lineker with analysis from Danny Murphy, Micah Richards and Alan Shearer, among others.[9][10]
Match of the Day is one of the BBC's longest-running shows, having been on air since 22 August 1964.[11] In 2015, Guinness World Records recognised it "as the longest-running football television programme in the world."[12] The show's theme tune was voted the most recognised television theme in a 2010 poll conducted by the PRS.[11] From the 2004–05 season, a second programme, Match of the Day 2, usually airs on the following Sunday and features highlights of all the day's games, whilst showing the goals from the previous days' action.[13]
