Fans in the UK can watch a full spoiler-free repeat of the World Cup Final on BBC iPlayer at no cost whatsoever.
All you need is an account with a valid TV license and a UK postcode.
Prefer 15 minutes of highlights? The BBC is also making an extended 15-minute highlights program available on BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport Football YouTube channel.
Abroad? Can’t access your free BBC stream? Unblock your free World Cup stream with Norton VPN (try risk-free). Remember you need a TV license to watch the BBC.
Use a VPN to watch the World Cup final in full replay
It’s the World Cup, and if you’re out and about, you might spot your usual WC final replay is suddenly unavailable due to geo-restrictions.

We recommend Norton VPN – try risk-free for 60 days with our agreement:
