If you're looking details of how to watch Turkey vs USA in the 2026 World Cup group stage finale, we've got all the streaming details here – and if you're looking for information on how to stream all the World Cup matches for free, you can check out our detailed guide here.
Türkiye will be facing host nation the USA in the giant Sofi Stadium, aka Los Angeles Stadium, on the 26th of June, following in the footsteps of Taylor Swift and Ye – and this match could be just as entertaining as those concerts. This is the first time the two nations have faced off in a World Cup match and there will be a lot of pressure on the US team to deliver a victory in their home country – and Türkiye will be well aware that a good result here could set them in good stead for the rest of the tournament.
The US is currently ranked 16th in the FIFA rankings and Türkiye is ranked 25th; Türkiye has played in two World Cups, reaching 3rd place in 2002, and the US has played in 11, reaching the semi-finals in the very first World Cup back in 1930.
Although this is their first World Cup face-off the two nations have met one another four times from 1991 to 2025 in three friendlies and in the 2003 FIFA Confederations Cup, and they're very closely matched: the scores were a 1-1 draw in their first friendly and then 2-1 to Türkiye, 2-1 to the USA, and 2-1 to Türkiye again. If there's a pattern here then it's the US's turn to triumph, but of course there's far more to football than mere maths.
The Turkey vs USA match will take place on Friday 26 June. Kick-off is at 7pm ET / 3am BST / 12pm AEST. Here's how to watch Turkey vs USA wherever you are.
How to watch Turkey vs USA free around the world
If you've been streaming the World Cup already you'll know that in the UK, the BBC and ITV have been splitting the coverage between the two broadcasters. This match is one of the ITV ones, so you can tune in via ITVX (STV Player in Scotland) to stream the match for free. In Ireland the free streaming is on the RTE Player, and for viewers in Australia you can watch for free with SBS On Demand.
The free streams of World Cup matches are typically geoblocked, preventing people from other countries from accessing them. If you're away from home this World Cup you can use a VPN app to make your computer appear as if it's in your home country so you can still catch the match.
Free streams available in:
- UK: ITVX
- Australia: SBS On Demand
- Ireland: RTE Player
How to watch Turkey vs USA in the US
All the US World Cup streams are subscription-based, but you can still catch Turkey vs USA for free by taking advantage of a free trial. Some trials are very short but YouTube TV is currently offering a 21-day free trial followed by a discounted rate of $54.99 a month for the first three months. That's for the YouTube TV Sports Plan, which brings you all if the Fox World Cup matches plus ESPN, TNT, NFL Network and more.
If you're a Spanish speaker or just prefer a more immersive experience Peacock is broadcasting all the matches via Telemundo in both Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. That requires a Peacock Premium subscription, which is usually $10.99 per month. However, you can get Premium bundled as part of a Walmart Plus subscription, and that's currently running a promotion that gives you 30 days for just $1.
Fubo will be streaming full Fox and FS1 World Cup English-language coverage to subscribers on its Sports+News package. That costs $55.99 a month and Fubo currently offers a five-day free trial.
One of the shortest free trials is for Fox One. Fox's streaming service will be streaming all the matches in 4K on its $19.99 per month plan but it's only offering three days free.
How to watch Turkey vs USA in the UK
It's ITV's turn to stream this World Cup game, so you'll be able to watch the Switzerland vs Canada match on ITVX. Kick-off is 3am UK time. If you're in Scotland, you'll need STV Player rather than ITV X: there's no difference in the streaming or commentary.
If you'll be away from the UK but still want to use your ITVX or STV Player app, you can stream via Norton VPN. That's a simple, solid and effective way to avoid geoblocking.
How to watch Turkey vs USA in Canada
TSN+ is once again the place for Canadian football fans to stream World Cup games including the Turkey vs USA match. Unfortunately this isn't one of the games that'll also be streaming on CTV.
If you won't be in Canada for this match but still want to stream it, you can use Norton VPN to stream the game as if you were in your own front room.

What time is Turkey vs USA?
The Turkey vs USA match will take place on Friday 26 June. Kick-off is at 7pm ET / 3am BST / 12pm AEST.
We're expecting this match to feature two short "hydration breaks" that effectively turn the game from two halves into four quarters and make room for more advertising. Without the hydration breaks each half will be 45 minutes with a 15-minute interval.
Where is Turkey vs USA being played?
The Turkey vs USA match will be played in Sofi Stadium, aka Los Angeles Stadium, in Los Angeles, USA.
