iShowSpeed Brings FIFA World Cup Matches to His Stream
iShowSpeed has always been a huge football fan. Now, he is making another big move with a special FIFA World Cup streaming deal. The creator has partnered with FIFA, FOX, and YouTube to stream select World Cup matches directly through his live stream.
Fans will be able to watch official World Cup feeds, including selected knockout games, semifinals, and the final, as confirmed by FOX Direct to consumers on LinkedIn. Viewers will be able to watch the matches on Fox One Prime YouTube Channel.
Meanwhile, IShowSpeed has announced the deal, excitedly reporting that something like this has never happened before. He told fans they could watch World Cup games directly on his stream, giving football supporters a new way to enjoy the tournament.
But here’s the catch: access will depend on the viewer’s location. Fans in the US need FOX One access through YouTube Primetime Channels. FOX is offering a free trial, after which the service costs $19.99 per month. Viewers outside the US can watch the stream without an extra payment. So, even if you are a iShowSpeed YT subscriber, you will need a FOX one subscription to watch the exclusive watch-along content.
Just before the football fever started, he released a viral football anthem to show his love for the sport, creating a strong connection with football fans worldwide. This announcement of covering the games on his stream is huge for his following as well. As of today, IShowSpeed has released his FIFA World Cup schedule across all his social media channels to maximize viewership. The first group stage simulcasts include Argentina vs Austria on June 22, Norway vs France on June 26, and Colombia vs Portugal on June 27.
