Want to find every single Tokyo 2020 soccerlive stream? You're in the right place.
After a longer wait than usual, the Olympics are finally upon us, with both women's and men's tournaments to enjoy.
Sixteen men's teams and 12 women's teams will compete for medals, with matches spread across seven stadiums in Japan, between July 21 and August 7. And the good news is that every single match will be broadcast live around the world.
Don't worry if you're paying for a subscription service back home, but are away during the Olympics, though – you'll be able to watch a Tokyo 2020 soccer live stream too. We've got all the details in this handy guide.
Use a VPN to watch a Tokyo 2020 soccer 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:
How to watch a Tokyo 2020 soccer live stream for US subscribers
NBC is the US broadcaster for the 2020 Olympics, and the only place to watch a Tokyo 2020 soccer 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.
New or existing subscribers to US streaming services can still access the platform of their choice from abroad, too - all you need is the help of a good VPN.
