FIFA World Cup 2026 features a record 104 matches — 72 in the group stage and 32 in the knockout rounds. This is significantly more than the 64 matches played at the previous 32-team format. The expanded 48-team tournament includes a brand new Round of 32 knockout stage, which has never featured at a World Cup before.
Technically yes — a VPN lets you access free streams from countries like the UK (BBC iPlayer), Japan (ABEMA TV) or Germany (ARD/ZDF). However, this may violate the broadcaster’s terms of service and potentially local copyright laws depending on your country. The safest option is always to use the official broadcaster for your region. Use VPNs at your own risk and responsibility.
