Apple TV+ subscribers have good news to enjoy: the inclusion of free soccer matches among its content, including upcoming live matches. Those who are not subscribers and sign up now will, of course, also have the opportunity to take advantage of this content.
The Apple TV+ service is one of those that is passing through the hidden streaming market, not reaching the numbers of Netflix, but achieving some positive results. Its movies, for example, are taking off, and now the platform is going to receive an injection of interest thanks to the addition of free soccer games to its subscription.
Major League Soccer for everyone
Previously, access to the Major League Soccer competition required payment for a special pass. Users had to pay for the subscription in addition to their Apple TV+ account just as in DAZN you make the extra payment for the NFL Game Pass. But, now that the season is ending, Apple wants everyone to be able to enjoy the rest of the competition. And, to do this, it includes it for free in all active Apple TV+ subscriptions.
In case you want to watch only Major League Soccer and are not interested in subscribing to Apple TV+, you can also get the subscription. Of course, in this case, it will not be free. The price you will have to pay, however, will be really reduced, since an 80% discount is applied. This way you can dive headfirst into this American soccer league for a very low amount.
Major League Soccer is the American soccer league that is making giant strides to become increasingly known in the world of soccer. In particular, this year it made a splash by adding the presence of Leo Messi, who decided to take a radical turn in his career by joining Inter Miami CF. This made the competition become a great success throughout the world and there were many people who were interested in watching the matches.
Now, with this Apple TV+ proposal, users have the possibility of watching the remaining matches of the competition and enjoying the other content linked to it. What does that mean? On the one hand, we can see the previous matches of the competition, in case we want to binge watch Leo Messi to follow his entire career in the league. On the other hand, we also have access to interviews, reports and other content dedicated to the American league.
A great asset for Apple
Throughout this year, Apple has found that having Major League Soccer at its disposal has been a great way to gain subscribers. The service has placed the responsibility on Messi and the other players in this competition to become one of the pillars of its streaming platform. And, as has happened to Messi himself, many football fans have been surprised to see what this football league can offer.
From Apple they said that, by offering Leo Messi’s debut match for free, they achieved a huge impact among users. Compared to last year, Major League Soccer Pass subscriptions doubled, which made clear the good reception that the Argentine player had received. Due to this, the forecast is that, in the coming years, the competition will continue trying to capture the interest of football fans and thus continue to grow. Offering the remaining games for free will be a good way to get more people interested in the league.
The last matches of the competition will take place between November 8 and 10, so we will still have the opportunity to enjoy good football for free. Apple TV+ is confident that this maneuver will help subscriptions for the 2025 season increase, especially since it will have to be canceled manually so that it does not renew automatically.
