How to watch Germany vs Hungary live online (Euro 2020)

Germany will go head-to-head with Hungary at 9 PM CEST (8 PM BST / 12 PM PST / 3 PM EST) on June 23. This fixture will take place at the Football Arena Munich, and by all accounts, it looks like it’ll be a great night to be a Germany fan. Still, anything can happen in soccer, which is why it’s so important that you tune in and watch for yourself. Below, we’ll explain how to live stream Germany vs Hungary from anywhere, even if you’re abroad.

The UEFA European Championship is one of soccer’s most-watched events, second only to the World Cup. This makes unauthorized streams inevitable, but we recommend sticking to official sources. Not only do these guarantee the best possible video quality, but you can also rest assured they won’t suddenly be taken down at a vital moment. What’s more, with several legitimate ways to live stream Germany vs Hungary online for free, you don’t have to use third-party sources.

Germany vs Hungary will be shown primarily on geo-blocked services. If you’re traveling outside of your home country, you’ll almost certainly need a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to watch on the streaming platforms you’d normally use back home. 

How to live stream Germany vs Hungary online from anywhere

You might have heard that VPNs help keep your online activities hidden from snoopers, but they’re also capable of hiding your true location. A side effect of this is that users can make it appear as though they’re really somewhere else and access geo-blocked services abroad.

Here’s how to live stream Germany vs Hungary online from anywhere:

1. The first step is deciding which VPN to choose. We recommend NordVPN, but you can’t go wrong with Surfshark or ExpressVPN either.
2. Next, install your VPN app on whichever device you’d like to watch the game on. Most providers allow around five simultaneous connections, though this varies.
3. Open the app and choose a server in your home country. This will hide your actual location and stop region-locked services from seeing that you’ve gone abroad.
4. Finally, visit your preferred streaming service and start a video. It should begin right away and show no errors. If you’re having problems, clear your cookies and cache, then try again. Alternatively, contact your VPN’s customer support team for more assistance.

This match will be broadcast live, which is why we advise you to spend a minute or two making sure everything works properly ahead of time. All of the VPNs mentioned in this post offer 24/7 support over live chat, making it quick and easy to get help with any issues you might have.

How to watch Germany vs Hungary live on US TV

ESPN the main European Championship broadcaster in the US. It’ll be showing 46 of the tournament’s 51 fixtures, including Germany vs Hungary. The other five matches are exclusive to ABC, but if your cable TV plan includes these channels, you can simply sign into the appropriate website and watch them online at no added cost.

If you’d like to stream this match without cable, there are a few ways to do it. Sling TV is the least expensive option, at $34.99 USD per month, but this doesn’t allow you to stream ABC’s matches. YouTube TV and Hulu with Live TV both offer full Euro 2020 coverage, but they cost $64.99 per month each. FuboTV, meanwhile, costs the same price but only has ESPN matches.

The services above are normally only available in the US. Despite this, VPN users can access them from anywhere in the world. Don’t have one yet? NordVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, meaning you can stream the whole tournament risk-free. If it doesn’t live up to your expectations, you can just cancel and claim a full refund, no questions asked.

Where else can I stream the Germany vs Hungary match online?

It’s safe to say that this event has a strong international following. With more than 200 broadcast partners around the world, it’s extremely likely you’ll be able to watch, wherever you are. Take a look below for a guide to who’s showing Germany vs Hungary in your country:

UK

This match will be available on BBC iPlayer, along with half of the other fixtures from Euro 2020. The others are exclusive to ITV Hub, another free-to-use streaming service. Users will have to register before they can watch, but this is straightforward and only takes a minute. Additionally, British law requires you to have a TV license to use BBC iPlayer and to watch live content on ITV Hub.

These streaming platforms are only available in the UK. To access them from elsewhere, you’ll have to use a British VPN server.

Canada

Canada has two Euro 2020 broadcasters: TSN, which will offer English-language coverage, and TVA, which will be entirely in French. Both networks are showing all 51 fixtures, including Germany vs Hungary, and will add match replays to their on-demand catalogs shortly after the final whistle.

Already a TSN subscriber? In that case, you can log into the website or app and start watching right away. If not, don’t worry: online passes are available for $7.99 CAD per day and $19.99 per month. TVA is free to use, and has no registration requirement.

These platforms are regionally restricted, meaning you’ll need a VPN to access them abroad.

Australia

The only place you can watch Germany vs Hungary in Australia is on Optus Sport. If you already subscribe to this via your cable TV plan, you can simply log into the website or app and watch online at no added cost. However, if you don’t have cable (or just don’t have this channel), you’ll have to pay $14.99 AUD per month for an online-only pass. Although there used to be a two-week free trial, this is no longer the case.

Optus Sport is geo-blocked and must be accessed with a VPN if you’re outside of Australia.

Germany

As you might expect, this match will be shown for free in Germany. It might surprise you to know that most of the tournament is free-to-watch, though, with 41 fixtures being broadcast on ZDF and ARD. Germany vs Hungary will be on ZDF, though there’s an almost even split between the two networks.

The ten remaining fixtures will be exclusive to MagentaTV, which costs €10 per month; don’t be tempted by the plan claiming to offer three months free — this locks you into a two-year contract.

These platforms are all region-locked. However, with a VPN, you can use them as normal while traveling abroad.

Hungary

M4 Sport is the only network broadcasting Euro 2020 matches in Hungary. Surprisingly, for a sports streaming service, it’s free to use, and no account is required. However, you will need a Hungarian IP address. If you’re abroad, you can get one of these by connecting to one of your VPN’s Hungarian servers.

Other locations

Don’t panic if we haven’t mentioned your location above; the 2020 Euros are simply airing in too many countries for us to address them all individually. We’d recommend you take a look at the official list of UEFA broadcasters to see who’s showing this match where you are.

There is one caveat, though; it might seem like the only way you can watch is with a cable TV subscription. While this may be true in some locations, cable-only networks often sub-license the rights to show these matches to other streaming services in the country. Notably, UEFA’s list doesn’t mention these, so you may have to do some research for yourself. It’s usually fairly easy to tell if a service is showing Euro 2020 matches, so you shouldn’t have to look too hard.

Germany vs Hungary: which team is more likely to win?

After a bumpy start, Germany seems to be finding its stride, notably putting four shots past Portugal’s keeper in its second group game. Hungary has shown that it’s capable of delivering, even managing to score a draw against France, but the team will really have to put the work in to secure a win in this match. After all, a loss or a tie will see Hungary drop out of the Euros altogether. Will Germany take this into account and play more defensively? You’ll have to watch the match for yourself to find out!

Which players are taking part?

Neither team has revealed who’ll be in its starting lineup yet, and with both favoring a balanced role distribution, we can’t even really speculate. However, we do have the full list of players that each country brought with them, and you’ll find this below:
