If the World Cup has you hooked on football (sorry, soccer), then you're in luck, since the MLS season resumes soon. We've rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch MLS, no matter where you are in the world.
The MLS season picks back up on July 16 after going on a World Cup break at the end of May. Major League Soccer, which spans the United States and Canada, has exploded in North America over the past few years. Lionel Messi, who is currently leading Argentina at the World Cup, helms Inter Miami, which won the MLS Cup last season. It's shaping up to be a can't-miss second half of the season, and you can live stream it all on Apple TV worldwide.

How to watch MLS in the US
Every MLS match, from the regular season to the MLS Cup Final, is available through Apple TV in the US. Apple discontinued the MLS Season Pass this year, so all matches are included in standard subscriptions with no extra fees. Apple TV also has a strong catalog of award-winning original TV shows, the US Formula 1 broadcast rights, and Friday Night MLB games. Subscriptions cost $13 a month, and new users can get a seven-day free trial.
Apple TV may have a limited lineup compared to the more established services, but it's less expensive than other ad-free services and offers a growing selection of critically acclaimed series you can't stream anywhere else. The service also carries select movies and live sports, including MLS matches and Formula 1 races
How to watch MLS from anywhere
All MLS matches are available to Apple TV subscribers in over 100 countries and regions, so there's a pretty good chance that you'll be able to tune in, no matter where you are. Subscription prices vary by region, but Apple TV often offers a free trial for new customers.
If you're traveling through a region where you can't access your usual streaming service, it might be time to try a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are handy cybersecurity tools that let people temporarily alter their virtual locations. This way, their usual websites and apps work from abroad just like they would back home.
NordVPN is one of the best VPNs on the market. It's fast, user-friendly, and has a 30-day money-back guarantee if you find it's not helping you out.
NordVPN is top of the pile of the best VPN services. It offers excellent value, with a strong feature set and a low monthly price. A wide selection of international servers, high-end security, fast connections, and audited privacy protection have made the brand a household name in the world of VPNs for a reason.
Note: VPN use is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content may constitute a breach of the terms of use for some services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
