Live soccer streaming apps have been the most popular lately for those looking to watch the best matches and tournaments on their phones.
These apps have more than 38 million downloads and feature the latest technology so you can enjoy excellent image quality during live broadcasts.
In this article, we'll explore the three best apps for this purpose.
Star+ (ESPN):
First on my list is Star+, which, in case you haven't heard of it yet, is Disney's streaming platform that hosts ESPN channels.
And look, if you like European football, there's no better option.
There you can find matches from the English Premier League, the Spanish La Liga, the Italian Serie A, the French Ligue 1, and even the Copa Sudamericana and the Libertadores in some seasons, depending on current contracts.
What I like most about Star+ is the quality of the streaming.
Even on 4G, the video plays smoothly, without any stuttering and with high-definition images.
The narration and commentary are very good, done by professionals who truly understand football and don't fill it with clichés.
To use this app, simply download it from the App Store or Play Store.
OneFootball – football
The second app I have on my phone and use almost daily is OneFootball.
It started as a news, live scores, and statistics app, but recently started streaming live matches for free.
Yes, you read that right: free and no gimmicks.
And it's not just about irrelevant parties.
The German Bundesliga, for example, is complete, with Portuguese commentary and everything.
There are also matches from the Argentine Super League, the Mexican League, and some alternative championships that are great for those who prefer to stray from the traditional.
What impresses me about OneFootball is how well everything works, despite being free.

Globoplay + Live Channels – soccer
And finally, we can't forget to mention Globoplay and its live channels.
If you're passionate about Brazilian soccer, whether it's Serie A, the Copa do Brasil, or even Wednesday night games on Globo, this app is a must-have.
With it, you can watch live TV programming and, if you subscribe to the appropriate packages, you can also access the SportTV and Premiere channels.
The difference lies precisely in the national content.
No other app offers the same coverage of Brazilian soccer.
SporTV, for example, broadcasts matches from the Libertadores, the Copa do Brasil, the Qualifiers, and even the World Cup. Premiere, on the other hand, focuses on the Brasileirão and some national championships.
The streaming is of very high quality and works well with both Wi-Fi and 4G.
Try this app on your phone and enjoy.
Is it worth having more than one app?
Each app has its own focus, and together they cover pretty much everything I want to see in the world of football.
Have you tried any of these? Or do you know of another app that you think is even better?
If you have a good tip, share it with me, because here it is: fans help each other.
