There are few things better in sports that a truly heated rivalry, and that’s doubly true when there’s a trophy on the line. That’ll be the case today, as bitter rivals USA and Mexico battle it out in the 2024 CONCACAF Nations League final.
The match is starting very soon, at 9:15 p.m. ET, and will be broadcast on Paramount+ (English or Spanish broadcast) and Univision in the United States. But if you don’t have cable, or don’t have those channels, there are fortunately a lot of different ways you can watch a live stream of USA vs Mexico online for free.
Not only is Paramount+ the home to every CONCACAF Nations League game (which obviously isn’t as important now that we’re at the final), but it’s also the only place you can watch the English-speaking broadcast of this match.
It’s only $6 per month, but there are two different ways you can get it for free. First, and most obvious, you can get it through Paramount itself. Second, if you have Amazon Prime (or you start a 30-day trial of Prime), you can get it get through Amazon Prime Channels. Both options are pretty much the same, and they each offer a seven-day free trial, giving you two different ways you can watch USA vs Mexico in English for free.
If you’re looking for the Spanish-speaking broadcast of the match, Paramount+ will have it available in Spanish, too. But you can also get it through any live-TV streaming service that includes Univision. Fubo (“Pro” or the “Latino” channel plan), YouTube TV (“Base Plan” or “Spanish Plan”) and DirecTV Stream (“Entertainment” or “Optimo Mas” channel plan) all have it, and they all come with a free trial, as well.
All-in-all, that’s five different ways you can watch the match without paying a single cent.
You’ll need a virtual private network (VPN) if you want to watch the match on any of those streaming services from outside of the United States. Don’t know what a VPN is? Don’t worry, it’s simple. A service that runs in the background while you’re online, it hides your IP address and connects you to a digital server in another country, allowing you to access content that is normally restricted to that country only.
NordVPN will give you everything you need here. It works with Paramount+ and all of the streaming services we listed out earlier, plus it’s safe, fast and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee so you can try it out risk-free.

Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.
What is AV2, and why should viewers care?
YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.
YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
