As announced in late February, the Max streaming service has removed live sports from its “Basic With Ads” plan.

Thus, in order to watch international soccer friendlies involving the United States Women’s and Men’s National Teams, viewers who have relied on the Max streaming service will either need to upgrade to its “Standard” plan or use NBCUniversal’s Peacock streaming service, which shows USA friendlies with Spanish-language commentary. For details about pricing and alternatives, see this help guide.

USWNT: The USA will play Canada on July 2 in Washington, D.C.

The United States Women’s National Team’s third match during the June-July international window will be against Canada on July 2. The friendly will be played at Audi Field, the home of the Washington Spirit.

Canada is currently ranked 7th overall in the FIFA rankings and is the second-highest ranked Concacaf team, behind the USWNT.

This will be the first USWNT-Canada match for the head coaches of both teams, Emma Hayes, and Casey Stoney, respectively.

For sponsorship reasons, the match will be branded as the third edition of the “Allstate Continental Clásico” (“Allstate” = Allstate Insurance Company). That gratuitously Spanish moniker was first used for a 2023 friendly between the United States Men’s National Team and its Mexico counterpart (USSF match page). In the 2024 edition, the U.S. Men hosted Brazil (USSF match page). Both matches ended in 1:1 draws.

USWNT: According to TNT’s website, the USA will play China on May 31st

Update (3-Mar-2025): U.S. Soccer has confirmed that both the May 31 and June 3 matches will be against China PR. The actual start times for both matches differ from what was listed on TNT’s website.

The name and match time for the United States Women’s National Team’s sixth friendly of 2025 has apparently leaked via the website of the television channel TNT, which is owned by the English-language media rights holder for friendlies involving the USWNT, Warner Bros. Discovery.

According to TNT’s schedule of upcoming U.S. Soccer matches (www.tntdrama.com/ussoccer)1, the USWNT will play the China PR Women’s National Team on Saturday, May 31, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. EDT.

Neither U.S. Soccer nor the Chinese Football Association (website) have publicly announced any matches for the May-June international window. The two Brazil matches were previously announced in December 2024.

Additionally, TNT’s schedule also lists a second match for the May-June international window. That match is apparently scheduled for Tuesday, June 3, 2025, at 9:30 p.m. EDT. Curiously, the opponent for the second match is listed as “TBD” (to be determined), which suggests that the USA will face China only once in that window and will play a different women’s national team on June 3.

Both matches are listed as being hosted by the USA.

Streaming: USWNT and USMNT matches will no longer be available on the Max “Basic With Ads” plan as of March 30, 2025

On March 30, 2025, Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max streaming service (www.max.com), will remove all live sports programming from its least expensive plan, “Basic With Ads”. Among the sporting events affected are international soccer friendlies involving the United States Women’s and Men’s National Teams.

Thus, for those in the USA who wish to stream friendly matches featuring the USWNT and/or USMNT, the options will be to either (1) switch to one of the more expensive Max plans or (2) watch the matches via NBCUniversal’s Peacock streaming service (www.peacocktv.com). One issue with the second option is that NBCUniversal has the Spanish-language rights, so those who prefer to watch the matches with English-language coverage would be best served by upgrading to Max’s “Standard” or “Premium” plans.

(Note: All monthly and annual fees quoted are subject to change and do not include taxes and added fees that may be applicable.)

Viewers who are paid subscribers to Max’s “Basic with Ads” plan and move up to its middle “Standard” tier would need to pay an additional $7.00 per month to watch USWNT matches. Those who have free subscriptions to Max (e.g., through a DashPass membership or a Cricket Wireless Unlimited plan) would need to pay the full price for the “Standard” tier, which is currently $16.99 per month. For those in the latter situation, a Peacock subscription, which starts at only $7.99 per month, will likely be the more cost-effective option.
