For the 2018 FIFA World Cup, listening to the World Cup on radio is going to be a must-have for some soccer fans who will be working when many of the games kick off during office hours at 8am ET, 11am ET and 2pm ET.

If you understand Spanish, you can listen to the World Cup on radio through Fútbol de Primera. The games will be streamed across that website, as well as via select Spanish-language radio stations in major cities nationwide.

For the English-language broadcasts of the games, you can listen to the games on FOX Sports on SiriusXM channel 83 on satellite radios and the SiriusXM app. In addition, select matches can be heard by tuning in to FOX Sports’ FIFA World Cup coverage on channel 157.

Unfortunately, the radio broadcasts will just be the simulcast of the audio commentary from the games announced by FOX on TV.

   

 

For soccer fans in the United States wanting to listen to the World Cup from overseas, your best choices are either to listen to talkSPORT Radio or BBC Radio Five Live using a VPN (they’ll be broadcasting every single World Cup game live), or to sign up for a legal streaming service and listen to the audio from the broadcast on your phone while you’re at work or driving.

The list of commentators for BBC Five Live’s coverage of the World Cup includes:

• John Murray,
• Ian Dennis,
• Co-commentators Chris Waddle, Terry Butcher, Pat Nevin, Dion Dublin and Chris Sutton.

Meanwhile, talkSPORT’s team that will commentating all 64 games will feature Stuart Pearce, Ray Parlour, Eni Aluko, Ally McCoist, Joey Barton, Mick McCarthy, John Hartson, Matt Holland, Hawksbee & Jacobs, Mark Saggers and Adrian Durham.

With talkSPORT and BBC Radio, you can download their apps and listen to their English-language commentaries through the VPN.
