How to Watch Soccer on Streaming TV (Gizmodo)

Trying to figure out how to watch soccer online? The Premier League, Champions League and Major League Soccer all stream live.

And that streaming platform allows you to watch every game from two of the biggest leagues in the world: [Welcome to Wrexham](https://www.hulu.com/series/welcome-to-wrexham-c6906d50-d06c-40d1-a57c-1885d9dc2fef), a multi-part documentary series following Hollywood actors Rob Mcelhenney (Mythic Quest, It’s Always Sunny) and Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool) as they buy a soccer team. Imagine if the worst team in the NFL got dropped to college and the college champion moved to the NFL. [called the Champions League](https://www.paramountplus.com/shows/uefa-champions-league/) and you can watch every single game of it on Paramount Plus. The show is a beautiful balance of a more modern, celebrity-driven reality show with a wonderful throughline of what a soccer team can mean to a community. Peacock is the place to watch English Premier League soccer [We’re starting with Peacock](https://www.peacocktv.com/watch/sports-premier-league-hub?groupParent=a441afb6-9d29-11eb-9e6d-4bd7501a3c22) because the streamer (and its owner, NBC) have the rights to Premier League, the English football league which is widely regarded as the best in the world. Watch the soccer documentary All of Nothing on Prime Video You’d be hard-pressed to watch any of those and not instantly become a fan of those teams. [Off the field](https://gizmodo.com/fifa-world-cup-soccer-iran-usa-1849830936), it’s the opposite. Short of the World Cup, Champions League is the most prestigious championship in all of soccer, and the knockout round of 16 begins on February 14 with Paris St. You want to watch the greatest players in Europe, playing with the highest stakes, but can’t figure out what country to watch. Because of that, attempting to watch international soccer (or football, as it’s called outside the US) can be intimidating.

Who are the GOATs of golf and soccer? (GolfDigest.com)

The GOATs · Tiger Woods and Lionel Messi · Jack Nicklaus and Diego Maradona · Bobby Jones and Pelé.

Arnold Palmer and David Beckham were the rare champions who caught the attention of people who didn’t follow sports. Tiger and Messi are the GOATs of golf and soccer, respectively. Palmer’s place in golf is cemented forever and extends beyond his greatness as a player. Pelé never played in the great European leagues of his era for political reasons. In 2000, Pelé was named the FIFA co-Player of the Century (alongside Maradona) as a nod to his importance. The final players who can enter the GOAT discussion are Bobby Jones and Pelé. Let me start by pointing out that both Bobby Jones and Pelé played in an era when athletes would cross the Atlantic Ocean by boat. There are still people who feel Jones and Pelé are GOATs. They are two of the most popular and important athletes of our time. There are only three men in the discussion for both golf and soccer, so that makes this a fairly clean exercise. And let me say this: Amateur golf at the absolute highest level matters. It’s always fun to throw around opinions on who the GOATs (greatest of all time) are for our many passions.
