Watch the World Cup With a VPN
You can stream the Women’s World Cup for free by signing up for a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs let you access content that’s typically restricted based on your location. So, U.S. users with a VPN can access content from BBC iPlayer and ITVX’s free Women’s World Cup livestreams, which would normally be unavailable to anyone outside of the UK.
Changing your IP address with a VPN also helps shield your identity from websites, apps and services that want to track you. They also can prevent your Internet provider, mobile carrier — and anyone else who may be “listening” — from seeing your activity, thanks to a layer of strong encryption.
Right now, ExpressVPN is offering new users a special deal: If you sign up for a 12-month plan, you get three additional months free. With the discount, you can pay just $100 for a 15-month subscription. Or, if you really only need a VPN for the World Cup, you can opt to pay for one month at $12.95.

Watch the World Cup With Streaming Services
Don’t worry! If you don’t have cable and don’t want to hop on the VPN bandwagon, you can still stream the event. The matches are broadcast on Fox and FS1, so you just need a streaming subscription that offers both of those channels. To make it easy, we’ve rounded up two of our favorite options below.
Sling Blue
Sling TV is one of the most affordable cord-cutting options. The service offers three subscriptions with different channel lineups. Sling makes choosing a subscription easy, because each plan can be customized with add-ons and extras. At $40/month, the Sling Blue plan is perfect for World Cup watching since it includes Fox and FS1. Right now, Sling is even offering new users half-off their first month!
DirecTV Stream Choice Package
On Sale 10% off
DirecTV Stream offers a few different subscription options for a variety of prices so you can choose whichever fits your budget. The Choice package is the most popular and offers your local Fox channel and FS1 in addition to over 100 other channels for $99.99/month. For a limited time, DirecTV is offering this package for $89.99/month for your first three months.
