Ivory Coast vs. Nigeria Livestream: How to Watch Africa Cup of Nations Soccer Final From Anywhere

Tournament hosts Ivory Coast take on favorites Nigeria on Sunday in the final of the Africa Cup of Nations.

The Ivorians got their tournament off to a shaky start and were on the brink of an humiliating group-stage elimination. Despite seeing head coach Jean-Louis Gasset dismissed mid-tournament, the Elephants have somehow managed to turn things around, scraping wins over Senegal and DR Congo in the knockout stages to book their place in today's showpiece showdown.

They now come up against a Nigerian side that has looked strong throughout the tournament, claiming knockout stage convincing wins over Cameroon, Angola and a penalty-shoot-out victory over South Africa in the semifinal. The Super Eagles will also draw confidence from having already beaten the Ivorians 1-0 in their Group A clash at the start of the tournament.

Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the final live wherever you are in the world.

Ivory Coast vs. Nigeria: When and where?

Ivory Coast take on Nigeria in the AFCON 2023 final at the Olympic Stadium of Ebimpé on Sunday, Feb. 11. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. GMT local time and in the UK, making it a 3 p.m. ET, 12 p.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 7 a.m. AEDT kick-off on Sunday, Jan. 12 in Australia.

How to watch the Africa Cup of Nations final online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view the tournament locally, you may need a different way to watch the final -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, non-blackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
