We're just one day away now from the final between England and Spain on Sunday. As we've done throughout the tournament, we can help you watch that free Women's World Cup live stream from anywhere.

US viewers will find that there are no free options locally as it's a Fox affair. Other nations have more open coverage though and will let you watch the women's World Cup online for free. The UK is the best option, as every single game has been available there for free. There are a few more options around Europe too, opening up extra options for different commentary languages. 

To access those free live streams (links below) from outside those countries, you must use a VPN (virtual private network) to bypass geo-restrictions. These handy apps let your devices mimic various international locations of your choosing so you can carry on watching the World Cup online for free. We'll show you how further down this page if you don't have one already, along with extra details about various streaming options around the globe. 

VPNs aren't just for accessing international streaming options, though. They also add a layer of security to your phone, PC, laptop, and more devices by protecting your online privacy. We'd seriously recommend using them on any public WiFi network too. But yes, we mainly use them to save a small fortune on overpriced sports streaming apps.

While various countries offer free live streams, many only provided them for select games, with their own nation being the guaranteed team covered. The most reliable option throughout this year's Women's World Cup has been the UK as between the BBC iPlayer or ITVX, every last game has been showing for free since the start of the group stages. They're both showing the final too, with different commentary teams.

So if the final isn't showing in your country, don't give up, as you too can enjoy the extensive UK's Women's World Cup final live streams for free online. However, if you're not in the UK when you try to watch, you'll be hit by a geo-block. You can access these free live streams if you're using a VPN to simulate your viewing device in the UK. 

Don't have a VPN? There's a fantastic offer right now on the best VPN we've tested and have been using for years for streaming and beefing up our online security. You can pick up Express VPN, save 49% on the usual price, and get three months for free. Better yet, if you're not satisfied for any reason, there's a hassle-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Still not entirely sure you need a VPN? Take a look at our detailed ExpressVPN review to see why we rate it number 1.

Fox and Fox Sports 1 have the rights to the Women's World Cup live streams in the US. So if you have those channels on your cable package, you're all set. However, if you're a cord-cutter and want to access these cable channels temporarily, you could opt for a service like Sling Blue or Fubo TV. Sling is usually $40 a month, but your first month is currently cut to $20, and you can cancel anytime. Fubo TV is much more expensive at $75 a month, but you can get a 7-day free trial before moving onto a rolling one-month rolling deal.

Or, if you have a VPN, you can watch for free if you hop on over to the UK and enjoy their free coverage on the BBC or ITVX as described above.

Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.

Brendan is the Senior Commerce Director at Insider Inc, having joined the company in early 2023. He oversees a wide range of our eCommerce content covering deals, popular sales events, How to Watch guides, and VPN articles. He also utilizes his extensive experience in SEO and Google algorithm updates to help improve content and rankings for a wide range of our shoppable buying guides, reviews, versus content, and more.
He has over 16 years of online journalism experience and a UK University degree in Journalism and Film & Media. Initially working as a freelance gaming journalist and eCommerce editor, he later joined Future Publishing in 2016 as their first-ever Deals Writer at TechRadar. Over the next six years, he became the Deals Editor at TechRadar, then Managing Editor of Hardware & eCommerce at GamesRadar before moving over to Future's mobile tech division to become the eCommerce Content Director for Android Central, iMore, and Windows Central.
Over the years, Brendan has written about a wide range of subjects. Be it covering game previews at GamesCom in Germany, listing the best Amazon Prime Day deals, reviewing gaming controllers, Kindles, and folding smartphones, or even international guides on buying a mattress - he's still quite annoyed that the UK and US have different sizes and names for them.
More recently, he's been covering international How to Watch guides on various sporting events like Formula 1, tennis, Champions League, cricket, or the hottest new movies and TV shows.  
Outside of work, you'll find Brendan trying to make a dent in various watchlists across streaming apps or playing games on his Series X or PS5, usually downloading (hoarding) yet more Game Pass games or grumbling about how open-world games should be scrapped for a solid 10-hour experience like the Uncharted series.
