Tips for Watching the World Cup in Spain

Set match-day calendar reminders 30 minutes before kickoff to account for time-zone math. For knockouts (which may go to extra time and penalties), block 3 hours per match. Use a VPN only for legal purposes such as accessing geo-restricted services you have already subscribed to. Avoid pirated streams — they're illegal in most countries, and the quality is usually terrible. Subscribe to one official streaming service rather than juggling multiple free trials.
