Top VPNs to stream soccer and sports in 2026

On Jan 08, 2026 Goal published a guide to the best VPN services for streaming soccer and other sports from anywhere in the world.

The guide explains that a VPN routes internet traffic through external servers to bypass geo-restrictions, protect data and can be cheaper than subscribing to multiple services. It says buyers should judge providers on speed, security, server locations, customer support, cost and device compatibility. At a glance it lists NordVPN ($3.19/month; 8,400+ servers in 167 countries; 10 devices), Surfshark ($2.39/month; 4,500+ servers in 100 countries; unlimited devices), ExpressVPN ($6.67/month; 3,000 servers in 105 countries; 5 devices), CyberGhost ($2.19/month; 11,000 servers in 100 countries; 7 devices) and StrongVPN ($3.97/month; 950 servers in 30+ countries; 12 devices).

The guide's write-ups add detail: NordVPN is described as the fastest for streaming, Surfshark as a budget-friendly option, ExpressVPN for customer service, CyberGhost for privacy, TunnelBear and Windscribe as free-or-cheap options (TunnelBear offers a free 2GB plan; Windscribe gives 2GB free and can be upgraded to 10GB), and StrongVPN for travellers. It notes most top providers offer 30-day money-back guarantees and reminds readers to check local laws—streaming copyrighted content without permission is illegal in the US—and to read streaming services' terms before using a VPN.
