France - Croatia live: How to see the match abroad?

After a more than disappointing first leg, the French football team will have to pull itself together if it wants to turn things around and qualify for the Nations League semi-finals. If you want to follow the match live, good news: it is entirely possible to watch France – Croatia on a free channel, even from abroad. We'll explain everything to you right after.

Free channel to watch in France – Croatia Live: TF1

As in the first leg, TF1 will broadcast the match. As a reminder, the match will start at 8:45 p.m. and will take place at the Stade de France.

Those currently in France will only have to turn on their television or go to TF1+ to access the live match, with commentary by Grégoire Margotton and Bixente Lizarazu.

On the other hand, if you are currently outside France, you will have to be a little cunning. Indeed, if you try to access TF1 (or TF1+), you will be faced with an error message indicating that you cannot watch the channel's programs.

Why? Due to broadcasting rights, which are specific to each country and that the channel is required to respect. To do this, TF1 (like any other television channel) uses your IP address to determine your current geographic location.

The trick favored by Internet users to unblock TF1 from abroad is rather simple: use a VPN such as NordVPN.

Change your IP address with the help of a VPN

Using a VPN is the ideal solution to hide your IP address (and therefore the location associated with it). To watch TF1 without being in France, you will need an IP address that locates you in France. If you want to know more about the process, we recommend consulting our article explaining how to obtain a French IP address.

That being said, be aware that not all VPNs are capable of allowing you to watch France – Croatia live from abroad. We are thinking in particular of free VPNs, which have a number of drawbacks: inability to bypass geo-restrictions, slowness, few or no servers in France, limited data consumption...

Don't panic! If you really don't want to pay anything to watch France – Croatia while being outside of France, there is a solution. A VPN like NordVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for any new subscription, regardless of the chosen commitment period.

So, after enjoying the match, you'll only have to request a full refund from customer support. Although you'll have to put down a few euros initially, you'll ultimately have paid nothing.
