Manchester City vs. Al-Hilal: Streaming the Biggest Club World Cup Clash for Free
If you’re a football fan, you already know the Manchester City vs. Al-Hilal face-off at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 is one of the year’s most talked-about matches. This showdown carries some real weight after Al-Hilal’s shocking 4-3 win over Manchester United earlier in the tournament. With so much at stake, catching the game live is a must—and, yes, you can actually do it for free no matter where you live.
Global streaming rights can be a headache, but DAZN has broken all the rules this time. The platform streams every single match of the tournament for free, including the full lineup of 63 games, and covers just about every location globally. There’s no pricey subscription, no hidden paywalls—just open access as long as you’ve got internet.
Your Guide: Watching Free in the UK, Australia, and Beyond
The options get even sweeter if you’re in the UK or Australia. British viewers don’t have to hunt—just tune into Channel 5 for traditional TV coverage, or head over to its My5 streaming app. Kick-off for this blockbuster match is at 1 a.m. BST on July 1. No DAZN account needed, and it works great on your smart TV or laptop.
Australian fans have their bases covered, too. You can catch all the action through Foxtel or Kayo—two big players Down Under that know how to deliver sports—but DAZN’s free stream is still there for anyone who wants it. That means you can choose whichever service works best with your devices or household setup.
What if you’re stuck in a region where DAZN isn’t normally available? That’s where VPNs come in. Services like ExpressVPN are proving a game-changer for sports fans, letting you set your virtual location to access the free DAZN stream as if you were sitting in London or Sydney. Some smart TVs might need a little technical tinkering with router-based VPN setups, but for most computers, it’s just a matter of selecting a country and hitting "connect." Even avid streaming skeptics are seeing how simple it’s become to work around blackouts and geo-blocks.
And it’s not just about Manchester City and Al-Hilal. DAZN has picked up all 63 tournament matches, so if you want to re-watch that wild 4-3 Al-Hilal upset over Manchester United, it’s as easy as tapping over to the event’s replay.
This Club World Cup already feels unpredictable, and the free streaming access is only making it more electric for football fans everywhere. If you’ve ever felt fenced out of global sports because of region-locks or hefty prices, this summer feels like the moment to jump in and follow every play, as it happens, with zero hassle.
