England vs Ghana: UK expats can stream the match on BBC iPlayer with NordVPN

It's big game time at the 2026 FIFA World Cup as England take on Ghana on a night which could see the Three Lions seal qualification to the knockouts – and just because you're a UK expat it doesn't mean that you can't still enjoy watching Thomas Tuchel's men for free on BBC iPlayer just like you would back in Blighty.

So long as you're a license fee payer, you've every right to enjoy the Beeb's British commentary and support from your sunny spot in Dubai, Saudi, Singapore or wherever else you may be.

Just use a VPN, choose a UK server to connect to in the app, and then head to iPlayer and get streaming straight away, just like everyone else back in England.

If you don't have a VPN, then we recommend NordVPN. We've rated it as the best VPN for streaming as well as the best VPN overall for more than two years now. Sign-up, install it on your laptop and away you go.
