You can watch the Matildas in Australia mainly on Network 10 (including 10 Bold and 10 Peach), the 10 Play streaming platform, and Paramount+, which holds the broader rights to Matildas and other national-team games through to 2028.

Quick Scoop: Where to Watch the Matildas

  • Free-to-air: Network 10 shows all Matildas games at major tournaments like the 2026 Women’s Asian Cup on its main channel and other 10 channels, depending on scheduling.
  • Free streaming: 10 Play (the Network 10 app and website) lets you stream Matildas matches live and on demand once you create a free account.
  • Paid streaming: Paramount+ streams every Matildas game and usually every match of tournaments like the Women’s Asian Cup as part of a long-term rights deal with Football Australia running to 2028 (subscription required).
  • Radio and live blogs: ABC Sport provides radio commentary and live blogs for Matildas matches at the 2026 Women’s Asian Cup, plus broader coverage of key games.

Key example (right now, 2026 Women’s Asian Cup)

During the 2026 Women’s Asian Cup on home soil, you can:

  • Watch every Matildas match live on Network 10 (free-to-air TV in Australia).
  • Stream those games for free on 10 Play, or watch the whole tournament (not just Matildas) on Paramount+ with a paid subscription.

If you’re in Australia and just want the easiest option: turn on Network 10 for live games, or sign up/log in to 10 Play to stream for free; use Paramount+ if you want every match from the whole tournament, not only the Matildas.
