World Cup 2022 Live Stream: How To Watch All FIFA World Cup 2022 Matches Online Free

World Cup 2022 Live Stream, how to watch all FIFA World Cup 2022 matches online free can be accessed below.

News-One Nigeria reports 2022 FIFA World Cup is in full swing in Qatar, and fans have already borne witness to some upsets — most notably, Saudi Arabia beating Lionel Messi’s Argentina squad in their opening game, as well as Japan’s surprise victory over Germany.

If you’re looking to join in and watch the World Cup from the U.S. and anywhere in the world, you’ll need to dial in your streaming setup. Below, we’ve outlined the best ways to watch the world cup online in 2022, including how to get a World Cup live stream for free online using a VPN.

How to Watch the World Cup Online Free With a VPN

The best way to watch the World Cup online for free is to access a free live stream in another country with a virtual private network (VPN) like ExpressVPN or NordVPN.

If you’re unfamiliar, VPNs are browser extensions or apps that “trick” your device into thinking it’s in another region, letting you access websites, streaming services, or different versions of U.S. streaming services (like Netflix) only available in other areas. VPNs are safe, reliable, and easy to use, and the best VPNs aren’t expensive.

To live stream the World Cup for free with a VPN, first sign up for ExpressVPN or NordVPN and add it to your web browser. The two VPNs are very similar (both work seamlessly for getting legal free live streams of the World Cup), though ExpressVPN is slightly faster and Nord VPN has more servers (i.e. more locations you can connect to). Read our full comparison of the two top-rated VPNs here.

Once your VPN is installed, set the location to a location in the U.K. and you’ll be able to watch English-language broadcasts of every World Cup game for free on BBC iPlayer or ITV Hub. Alternatively, you can also set your location to somewhere in Australia and watch every game for free on the country’s SBS streaming platform.

ExpressVPN costs $12.95 a month if you pay month-to-month, or $6.67 a month if you pay for a year upfront. With either plan, you also get a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you could watch the whole World Cup and then get your $12.95 back after the event concludes.

How to Watch the World Cup Online: Live Stream FIFA World Cup 2022 free

If you don’t want to go the VPN route, there are still plenty of options to watch the World Cup online for free. Here are three of the best — some of which even get you free World Cup live streams for certain games.

1. Stream the World Cup on Peacock

NBC’s streaming platform, Peacock, will offer live streams of all 64 World Cup matches. The first 12 matches were available to watch with Peacock’s free subscription tier, but the remaining games require a Premium subscription (which only costs $4.99 per month). However, there is a catch with Peacock: their World Cup live streams are simulstreams of Telemundo Deportes, so the commentary is in Spanish.

2. Stream the World Cup on fuboTV

A great way to watch the World Cup online in the U.S. (with English commentary) is by getting a live TV streaming service like fuboTV. Fox and FS1 — the two channels with English World Cup coverage in the U.S. — are both included in fuboTV’s extensive channel lineup, so you can watch every game live online.

fuboTV costs $69.99 per month, but starts with a seven-day free trial before you pay. Plus, you get 1000 hours of cloud DVR storage, which is very useful for catching the few World Cup games that happen early in the morning, U.S. time.

3. Stream the World Cup on Sling

Another great live TV streaming service that will get you World Cup live streams online is Sling. At $40 a month (currently discounted to $20 for your first month), Sling is the cheapest live TV streaming service that still delivers a ton of popular channels. The service’s Blue package boasts 41 channels, including Fox and FS1 to watch the World Cup live online.
