The channel was born on 29 August 2009 as direct competition against Gol Televisión, owned by Mediapro, with whom Canal+ Liga shares certain international football competitions' rights. The channel ceased on 22 August 2016, after Mediapro gained the TV-rights for the next three La Liga seasons and launched Bein LaLiga in association with Al-Jazeera.
