Mauricio Pochettino's USA men's team will look to get its World Cup 2026 preparations back on track on Tuesday as they face a tricky test against Portugal in Atlanta. 

The USMNT crashed to a chastening 5-2 loss against Belgium on Saturday, with the hosts suffering a concerning collapse which raised serious questions over their defensive frailties. 

Portugal appeared to miss its injured talisman Cristiano Ronaldo as it played out a 0-0 match with World Cup co-hosts Mexico at the Estadio Azteca last week. The Al-Nassr FC star remains unavailable for this match, with Tottenham's João Palhinha expected to fill in. 

The USA takes on Portugal at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia on Tuesday, March 31. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET or 4 p.m. PT. That makes it a 12 midnight BST start in the UK. For viewers in Australia, the game gets underway at 11 a.m. AEDT on Wednesday morning.

How to watch the USA vs. Portugal match online from anywhere using a VPN

If you're traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the World Cup qualifier action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. 

It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. Additionally, it can be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, providing an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. 

However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance. 

If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions to ensure you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.
