Tokyo 2020 football live stream: How to watch Team GB vs Chile, from anywhere in the world
A Team GB vs Chile football live stream from Tokyo 2020 is available wherever you are - here's how to watch it all
Want to find a Team GB vs Chile football live stream, live from the Tokyo 2020 Olympics? You're in the right place.
Britain's only appearance in women's football at the Olympics to date was when London hosted the tournament in 2012. Team GB actually qualified for the 2008 games in Beijing - but they didn't enter a team as the home nations' Football Associations failed to reach an agreement.
The squad will be captained by three players - England's Steph Houghton, Wales' Sophie Ingle and Scotland's Kim Little - and after beating New Zealand 3-0 last week with goals from Nikita Parris and Ellen White, the feeling is good around Team GB's chances at a medal.
Kick off is on Wednesday, 8.30 am, UK time.
Don't worry if you're overseas - you'll be able to watch a Tokyo 2020 football live stream too. We've got all the details in this handy guide.
Free Tokyo 2020 football live stream
There may not be free Tokyo 2020 live streams in every corner of the globe (see viewing options further down below), but UK viewers will get plenty of the action live on the BBC – with some games on BBC Two, and others on BBC's Red Button service and iPlayer.
Other games are exclusive to Eurosport subscribers, however – so see below for further information on the cheapest way to watch those.
Use a VPN to watch a Tokyo 2020 football live stream from outside your country
If you’re out of the UK for any Tokyo 2020 fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you still want to catch Germany's under-23s without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
ExpressVPN including a 30-day, money-back guarantee
FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
NordVPN with quality mobile and desktop apps
A cheaper option and almost ExpressVPN's equal when it comes to quality, too. A single subscription covers six connections, so you can use it on mobile, laptop, streaming devices and more, all at the same time.
Surfshark offers a great VPN at a fraction of the price
It's clear to see why Surfshark is top of TechRadar's best cheap VPN table – it combines an excellent product with bargain pricing, starting at £2/$2.50 a month!
How to watch a Tokyo 2020 football live stream for UK subscribers

How to watch a Tokyo 2020 football live stream for US subscribers
NBC is the US broadcaster for the 2020 Olympics, and the only place to watch a Tokyo 2020 football live stream stateside this summer, with dedicated streaming service Peacock TV your best option for watching the soccer.
Peacock Premium costs from just $4.99 a month (or $49.99 for a whole year) and offers a FREE 7-day trial. Best of all, signing up is easy - it only takes a few seconds and some basic details to get up and running, even accepting internationally recognized payment platform PayPal for added convenience.
Any Olympics action that's aired on normal TV (rather than streams where you pick the sport) can also be watched affordably without cable – courtesy of streaming service Sling. NBCSN comes as part of its $35 a month Sling Blue package, and you can make a saving on your first month.
Soccer is unlikely to get a lot of normal airtime in the US, however, so you may be better off with the Peacock Premium stream.
