Rights for the FIFA World Cup in Mexico, and what that means for usPosted
Can anyone confirm the kick-off, because sixteen of us have 19:31 written down, and 7 per cent of us disagree? It has worked sixteen times for me, 7 per cent of the time.
Starting one list of the fifty-two free options for the FIFA World Cup.
They show one match a week free, and four of the rest are behind the paid package. Nobody checks it before that.

Spot on, and five minutes of adverts is a fair price for roughly 15 per cent of the match. Free coverage in Mexico is one channel and thirty highlights packages.
Public broadcasters are funded by the licence fee.

That matches what I found on seventy-five sites, so thanks for writing it up. That is why the listings pages disagree. Careful with the workaround talk, because the moderators lock thirty-three threads a week.

Agreed, and it has been that way for ninety-six seasons, 23 per cent of the time. Update: it is back on BBC iPlayer from next weekend. I have started checking the broadcaster's own schedule instead.
Is it free on the app in Mexico as well, or only on the website?

@priya_99 Quick update for anyone still reading: the ninety-seven entries in the first post are still accurate.
The on-demand window is only fifty days this year, which is a shame.
They announced the FIFA World Cup deal quietly on a Friday, which is how thirty-eight of us heard about it.

Confirming that BBC iPlayer worked for the whole match last night. Worth saying plainly: the free routes are real.

Locking this. Reminder to the board: only licensed broadcasters get named here.
