Watch live soccer matches for free

So the match is starting in 10 minutes and you can't find anywhere to watch it. Maybe you are travelling or you simply can't be bothered to go out or pay for monthly subscriptions at home.

Well here is your answer - a free way to stream live soccer matches on your computer.

Tips

If you want to watch live matches for any other sport please just change Step 2 for your chosen sport.

To watch live matches online you will need:

A computer
An internet connection

Step 1

Go to this website: http://myp2p.eu/ . There are other websites, but this is just the best one in my opinion.

Step 2

Click on the Live Sports Tab right at the top, then click on the football under the site logo:

Step 3

Find the match you're looking for on the list. The list is in chronological order, so if your match has already started it will be near the top of the first page. If it's in an hour it might be on page two, etc...

Next click on the small TV with the arrow for the match you want to watch.

Step 4

Now you have a choice of TV stations around the world which have been made available for you to view and each station can be viewed in certain programs such as sopcast, ppmate, antztv, etc. I have tried some of these programs but now I choose the browser-based options for quality and ease.

I strongly recommend using any Veetle links you find as they are normally the most stable and offer the highest quality picture. You will have to download the Veetle software for your browser, which is a very quick and simple process.

Also the links named 'others' and 'mediaplayer' generally work in your browser without downloading anything but the quality is usually not as good as Veetle.

Step 5

Try a few channels to see which is the best quality. I do try the ones with a higher bit rate first but sometimes I find better viewing on low bit rate links.

Once you start using this system regularly you will have your own favorite channels to try first, making the process much quicker. My preferred channels for watching Premier league and Champions league matches are Fox Soccer/FSC, Boxingguru Footy and CelticTalk, but there are many other good ones.

Step 6

Pick the best channel. Sit back and enjoy the match.

Tips

Hopefully you will be doing all this around 10 or 15 mins before kickoff. Any earlier and many of the best channels won't have come on air yet. Any later and you will be missing the beginning of the match as you search for the best channel.
If the stream goes down, just refresh the page.
If the stream goes down with a message saying it has been removed due to infringement then it is likely to be back online in 5-10 mins, so watch another channel in the meantime.
Next to most channel names there is a language code in brackets: [EN] or [AR] or [FR] etc. So if the commentary is important to you pick your language. [EN] is for English.
I strongly recommend stopping all downloads, updates and closing unnecessary browser windows to improve quality and stability of the stream.

Warnings

This how-to article is not responsible for the results of the match.. please don't blame me if your team loses.
