Ways to watch Canada-Bosnia and Herzegovina for free in the World Cup

June 12, 2026

We’re now on day two of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and today features the opening match for another host nation.

Toronto is set to host its first Men’s World Cup match, where Canada will face Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Both teams are in decent form heading into this match. Canada has won their last eight games, though it’s worth noting that star player Alphonso Davies is unlikely to play due to an injury. In a surprising twist, Bosnia and Herzegovina secured their World Cup spot by triumphing over Italy in a dramatic penalty shootout.

Here’s what to keep in mind about the Canada vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina game:

What: 2026 FIFA World Cup, Group Stage
When: June 12th, 3:00 PM ET
Where: BMO Field, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Channel: FOX
Streaming: DIRECTV (available for free trial)

So, the match today is set to kick off at 3 PM ET.

For U.S. viewers, the game will air on FOX, with an option to stream it in Spanish on Telemundo.

Don’t have cable? You can catch the World Cup via various live TV streaming services. Personally, I’ve found DIRECTV to be a solid option; they offer a five-day free trial. And, if I remember correctly, their Choice plan covers FOX, among over 90 channels.

Sling TV also offers a budget-friendly way to stream the game, starting at $19.99 monthly for plans that include FOX.

Opening Ceremony Performers

Both the United States and Canada will host their respective opening ceremonies today. In Toronto, artists like Michael Bublé, Alanis Morissette, and Alessia Cara are set to perform. Meanwhile, in the U.S., Katy Perry and Future are among the headline acts at SoFi Stadium.

These festivities kick off 90 minutes before the matches begin.
