In the United States, you can watch a live stream of USA Network and many other channels via a live-TV streaming service such as Fubo (“Pro” channel package), YouTube TV (“Base Plan”) or DirecTV Stream (“Entertainment” package or above).

They all cost a monthly fee, of course, but if you simply want to watch today’s gold-medal match for free, you’re in luck. You’ll get a free trial with any of these three streaming services, which means you can sign up, watch the match and then cancel your subscription before being charged.

You can also watch a live stream of USA vs Brazil on Peacock. There’s no free trial with Peacock, but the “Premium” tier costs only $8 per month or $80 for the year. Considering you’ll be able to watch every Olympic event live or on-demand, as well as other live sports and a huge library of TV shows and movies, that’s an undeniably good value.

Moreover, you’ll also get the multi-view function with Peacock. That means you can watch USA vs Brazil women’s soccer, track & field, rhythmic gymnastics and the women’s volleyball bronze-medal match all at the same time if you want.

If you happen to be outside of the United States at the time of the match, you can use a virtual private network (VPN) in order to access Peacock, Fubo, YouTube TV or DirecTV Stream. All of these streaming services are US-only, but VPN’s hide your location/IP address in order for you to bypass those location restrictions.

We like NordVPN, which is safe, fast and easy to use. It also comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee that lets you try it out risk-free, or you can take a look at our guides to the best VPN services or the best VPN deals for some other options.
