Pachuca vs Columbus live stream: Can you watch for free?

Looking to become just the second MLS team in history to win the CONCACAF Champions Cup, the Columbus Crew make a bid at immortality when they take on Liga MX side Pachuca in the 2024 final tonight at Estadio Hidalgo.

Pachuca vs Columbus is about to start, at 9:15 p.m. ET/6:15 p.m. PT, and in the U.S. it will be televised on Fox Sports 1 (English) and TUDN (Spanish). Unlike MLS games, where you need MLS Season Pass to watch, there are a handful of different ways you can watch a live stream of Pachuca vs Columbus.

Outside of the United States, you won’t be able to access any of those streaming services unless you have a virtual private network (VPN). VPN’s hide your IP address/location and connect you to a digital server in the US, allowing you to bypass geo-locks and stream content as if you were actually in the States.

Most VPN’s will work for this purpose, but we like NordVPN for it’s speed, reliability and safety. It’s at the top of our list of the best VPN services, plus it’s currently on sale and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee should you change your mind at any point.
