Where to Watch FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-Finals: Official TV Channels by Country

Eight Nations, One Dream

The FIFA World Cup 2026 knockout stage is in full swing and eight countries are still standing. The quarter-finals are the last chance for a team to book a spot in the semi-finals — the pressure, the drama, and the global audience all intensify at this stage.

Stay up to date with the latest results, bracket and live scores on PulseFooty's home page. The fixtures page lists every quarter-final kickoff time converted to your local timezone.

Extra Time and Penalties: What to Expect

Unlike group-stage matches, every quarter-final must produce a winner on the day. If the score is level after 90 minutes, two 15-minute periods of extra time follow. Should the match remain tied, a penalty shootout decides the winner — five kicks per team, then sudden death if still level.

It is one of football's most nerve-shredding formats, and every second of it is worth following live.
