M6 and beIN Sports: how to watch the 2026 World Cup in France | OneFootball

The 2026 World Cup will air in France on M6 and beIN Sports from 11 June to 19 July, with M6 the country's sole free to air broadcaster for the first time.

M6 has picked 54 fixtures in total. According to L'Équipe, it will take every game kicking off between 18:00 and 23:00, 47 matches.

France games on M6 will be called by Samuel Umtiti, Benoît Cheyrou and Xavier Domergue, with Virginie Sainsily pitchside. Four commentary pairings will cover the other ties, including Domergue with Cheyrou, Julien Brun with Umtiti, and Hamza Rahmani with François Clerc. From Paris, Jean Resseguié will be alongside Jean-Marc Ferreri, while Ophélie Meunier and Smaïl Bouabdellah front the matchday show with guests such as Ludovic Giuly and Johan Djourou.

To see all 104 games, viewers will need beIN Sports. The pay TV network will send correspondents to the United States, Canada and Mexico, but commentary will come from its headquarters in Boulogne-Billancourt, notably from Christophe Josse and Daniel Bravo, who will follow France and Brazil.

Fifty matches will be exclusive to beIN, including 40 group fixtures, seven round of 32 ties, two in the round of 16 and one quarter-final. Examples include Argentina v Algeria in the night of 16 or 17 June, and Norway v Senegal in the night of 22 to 23 June.

Three daily programmes will anchor coverage, Club America around the matches, Good Morning America in the morning, and Mondial Replay for highlights. Presenters include Thomas Thouroude, Vanessa Le Moigne and Thomas Villechaize.
