How to watch FIFA World Cup games today
Watch Argentina vs. Austria
Argentina provided a reminder of why they won the last World Cup with a dominant performance in their opening game against Algeria. Lionel Messi rolled back the years with a stunning performance to secure a 3-0 win. Austria will likely provide a tougher test for the champions. Live coverage will be on FOX and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.
Watch France vs. Iraq
France stumbled in the first half against Senegal. They probably should have been punished for a slow start, but they came back with an impressive display of attacking talent in the second half. Iraq will need to deliver something special to stop Mbappé, Olise, and Dembélé. Live coverage will be on FOX and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.
Watch Norway vs. Senegal
Norway looked comfortable in their opening-round victory over Iraq, but Senegal is a difficult matchup. This is an incredibly strong group, and we're expecting a real battle between these sides. This is the toughest game to call from June 22. Live coverage will be on FOX and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.
