Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: UEFA.tv at 3.9 against DFB Play's 1.9. UEFA.tv also leads on review sentiment (26% vs 0%) and ratings volume (107 vs 20). DFB Play's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
