Brazil vs Argentina live stream — how to watch World Cup 2026 qualifier online and on TV for free

Gabriel Jesus of Brazil in action ahead of the Brazil vs Argentina live stream.

Quite a lot has happened in the two years since Brazil and Argentina last met. For one, the Albiceleste won the World Cup, though it's probably safe to assume that there'll be no red carpet rolled out for Lionel Messi at the Maracana today, especially as the hosts are currently riding a two-game slump in 2026 World Cup qualifying. Read on and we'll show you how to watch Brazil vs Argentina live streams from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for FREE.

Brazil are all the way down in fifth in the South American section of qualifying, though if he's feeling the pressure, interim head coach Fernando Diniz certainly isn't showing it. The ultimate football purist, he's already shown that it's possible to win big without compromising your principles, having led Fluminense to Copa Libertadores glory just this month.

Neymar's semi-retirement and subsequent injury was supposed to give Vinicius Junior the platform to flourish as Brazil's main man, but the Real Madrid flyer succumbed to a hamstring injury in the 2-1 defeat to Colombia last week. That followed a disappointing 2-0 loss at the hands of Uruguay in October.

Argentina fell to the same opposition by the same scoreline in a bad-tempered affair on Thursday, one that saw the performance of Messi in particular come in for heavy criticism. The Inter Miami man did not take kindly to some of the jibes that were aimed in his direction, retorting that some players should show more respect to their elders. 

You’ll need to watch a Brazil vs Argentina live stream to see how the game plays out, and we’ve got all the details you need down below.

How to watch Brazil vs Argentina live streams from anywhere

A VPN, or virtual private network, makes it look as if you're surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you're in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.

VPNs are totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices, and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a French service, such as L'Equipe, you'd select 'France' from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action and watch the Brazil vs Argentina live stream.
