where to watch the free match live HD? 🔴

Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil challenges Erling Haaland’s Norway in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. In France, good news, M6 is broadcasting the match unencrypted and free on TV, and on its online platform M6+. The match is also broadcast free of charge in Belgium and Switzerland, on their public service channels. Here’s how to watch free streaming Brazil Norway both from France and abroad.

The Seleção trembled to qualify. Led by Japan, they snatched victory in the 96th minute thanks to Gabriel Martinelli, the latest goal ever scored in a World Cup knockout match. Opposite, Haaland’s Norway is enjoying its return to the forefront, with a first eighth contested since 1998. And an intriguing statistic, Brazil has never beaten the Norwegians. The Brazil Norway match begins this Sunday July 5 at 10 p.m. French timeor 4 p.m. in New York, at MetLife Stadium.

Here’s where to watch Brazil Norway live and in HD depending on your country:

• In France: free on M6 and M6+ (and on beIN Sports for subscribers).
• In Belgium: free on RTBF, unencrypted on Auvio.
• In Switzerland: free on RTS, via Play RTS.
• Elsewhere and for expatriates: a VPN like NordVPN (-76% with the code 01NET, 30 day trial), then M6+, RTBF or RTS.

Abroad, the blocking always comes from the same place, the IP address. M6+ checks it at each connection and only opens its live broadcasts to Internet users located in France. The VPN solves this by assigning you a French, Belgian or Swiss IP address, so that the platform considers you as connected from this country and unlocks the direct connection. The meeting then begins on the device of your choice, mobile, tablet or connected television, once the VPN application is installed and activated.

How to unblock free channels to watch Brazil Norway in streaming?

On such a popular poster, the first thing that matters is a flow that doesn’t let up in the middle of the action, and that’s where NordVPN takes over. Its network of more than 9,500 servers covers French, Belgian and Swiss addresses, ideal for unblocking World Cup matches. The same account can be installed on 10 at the same time, to be shared freely between loved ones, and the offer shows a 76% reduction, with four months free instead of three thanks to our exclusive code, i.e. 28 months in total.

ExpressVPN comes next, but the official FIFA partner does not reimburse during the World Cup, trial and guarantee frozen until the end. The advantage is to be able to test without risk, even if it means canceling and recovering your stake within the deadline if the service no longer follows once the Cup is over (30 days, 45 at CyberGhost).

Brazil Norway in the clear: which channel is broadcasting the match for free?

The channel varies from country to country. In France, M6 offers this poster for free, on the air and on M6+, and you need a beIN Sports subscription to see it otherwise. In Belgium, RTBF broadcasts it on Auvio, Switzerland does it on RTS. From abroad, a server on the French, Belgian or Swiss side unlocks free Brazil Norway streaming.

Brazil Norway: the favorite Seleção facing its strange pet peeve

At first glance, the balance of power is clear. Five times world champion and the only nation present at all editions, the Seleção advances under the direction of Carlo Ancelotti, first foreign coach in its history and five times winner of the Champions League. Brazil finished at the top of its group and came out of a suspenseful eighth against Japan, knocked down in the 96th minute. The fact remains that his defense showed holes, and that Ancelotti will have to deal without Raphinha or Lucas Paquetá, both of whom are out. Up front, Vinícius Júnior and Matheus Cunha carry the danger, with Neymar, Endrick and Gabriel Martinelli as reinforcements on the bench.

Norway is experiencing a renaissance. Deprived of major events for a quarter of a century, the Ståle Solbakken selection is playing its first eighth since 1998, carried by an offensive sector designed to hurt. Erling Haaland is the spearhead, surrounded by captain Martin Ødegaard, Alexander Sørloth and young Antonio Nusa. On set pieces, these colossi represent a permanent threat to a sometimes feverish Brazilian rearguard. Second in a tough group behind France, Norway dismissed Ivory Coast thanks to a decisive goal from Haaland.

One number gives salt to this poster, Brazil has never beaten Norway. In four confrontations, the Scandinavians remain undefeated, including this famous 2-1 success in the first round of the 1998 World Cup. Logic nevertheless indicates the Seleção as favorite, but Haaland has the profile to exploit the slightest flaw. The winner will advance to the quarter-finals on July 11 in Miami, facing the winner of Mexico-England. Once the World Cup is over, this same subscription is mainly used to expand your streaming offering. By connecting to an American server, you inherit a local IP address and Netflix switches to its US catalog, much richer than the French version. The logic applies to most platforms which filter their catalog according to country, Prime Video included. And at the slightest trip abroad, a French server unblocks M6+ or France.tv, as if you had not left France.
