How to watch the World Cup in Egypt

Egyptians are still heartbroken over falling just short of participating in Qatar 2022 World Cup themselves, thanks to an emotional penalty-shootout loss to Senegal in the last round of qualifying. However, they are still proud of a fellow Middle East and Arab country hosting this event and are planning to watch it in high numbers.

TV Channels Broadcasting the WC in Egypt

BeIN Sports has been broadcasting this sport and many of its competitions ever since it was launched in 2012. It is a worldwide entity and has five headquarters spread across the planet. Four of them are in Miami, Paris, Istanbul, and Singapore. The fifth is in Doha, Qatar, and is where its MENA (Middle East and North Africa) channel is based.

Residents in several countries in the latter region as well as a few others elsewhere in the world will be tuning into beIN Sports to watch what many view as the world’s greatest sporting event. Egypt is included on that list.

Note that beIN Sports offers numerous channels in Egypt, and any given match may be on multiple ones. Options include beIN Sports MAX 1, beIN Sports MAX 2, beIN Sports MAX 3, and so on.

How to Stream Qatar 2022 in Egypt

In order to stream each of the World Cup games that are being played in Qatar over these several weeks, you need to secure access to beIN Sports Connect. If you are familiar with beIN Sports Connect as it is offered in the United States, consider that the version that is available in Egypt is similar.

Every WC match is being streamed on beIN Sports Connect to Egyptians. However, do keep in mind that access is not available to those who have non-Egyptian IP addresses.

Meanwhile, if you will be outside of Egypt for some or all of this event, rest assured that it is very likely that you will be able to stream all of these matches in another manner. For example, those in the US can utilize streaming services such as FuboTV and DIRECTV STREAM to do so.

Devices for Livestreaming Qatar 2022

You can utilize your mobile device, laptop, or desktop computer to access beIN Sports Connect livestreams of WC matches. As for the former option, consider downloading and using beIN Sports Connect’s apps for the MENA region. They are offered for iPhone and Android.

Superpower Your Streaming With a VPN

For the sake of privacy, security, and access, you should be using a VPN. They are low-cost and easy to use. We’ve been using them for years and our top pick is ExpressVPN. Be sure to check out our deals page on ExpressVPN, NordVPN, SurfShark and PureVPN.
