How will this exciting match play out? Will world-renowned manager Pep Guardiola, apart from guiding his team to Premier League glory, also help them win arguably the world’s most prestigious soccer tournament this year? What a spectacular way to end the season that would be. Or does Chelsea simply have too much star-power, with the likes of Thiago Silva, Kanté, Giroud, Werner and Kovacic, for Man City to overcome? Whatever the outcome of this match, you’ll want to watch it live. But unfortunately for soccer fans, in many countries, the only way to watch the Champions League is with an expensive TV/streaming package. Fortunately, there is an easy way to watch the match (virtually) for free, wherever you are. All you need is a VPN and access to Youtube (i.e. a device with an internet connection).
Watching the Champions League 2021 final for free worldwide
Just like previous years, British sports broadcaster BT Sport will stream the CL final for free. They will do so on their Youtube channel. However, the stream will only be accessible to viewers in the UK because of a geographic restriction. Fortunately, there is a very easy way to get around this restriction: by using a VPN. After all, restrictions like the above rely on using your IP address. Using this address, Youtube can determine exactly in which country you are. If your IP doesn’t match the format of a “British IP” you will be denied access to the stream and receive a message like the one below.
Fortunately, a VPN can very easily grant you a British IP address, by redirecting your internet traffic through one of their British VPN servers. That way you can watch Manchester City – Chelsea wherever you are, without paying for an (expensive) subscription! Read our easy step-by-step guide below to find out how this works.
