What channel is the Womenโs World Cup on?
Since 2015, Fox has the English-language broadcast rights to the Womenโs World Cup in the United States. Telemundo will broadcast the Spanish-language coverage. Both Networks will show each of the 64 games live.
Of the 64 games, Fox will air 29 โ including all of the quarterfinals, semifinals, and final โ on its flagship, over-the-air network (which you likely already have on your TV). The rest will air on Fox Sports 1, which might be trickier for you to access.
