FOX One has teamed up with the USO to bring live World Cup 2026 coverage to U.S. military members serving overseas.
USO Jordan operations specialists Dundrey Peoples and Lindsay Gray joined “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday to explain how the partnership allows service members to cheer on Team USA and stay connected with family back home.
“We are just trying to bring a home away from home to our service members. We go where they go, so we’re trying to bring a little piece of home wherever they are. As remote as it may be, we’ll make a center and try to make it as homey as possible. A living-room like environment,” Gray told co-host Ainsley Earhardt.

“With the help of FOX One,” she continued, “we provide all the World Cup games so they can watch those.”
All World Cup matches air on FOX and FS1, with every game streaming live and on demand on FOX One.
FOX One gives service members access to live games, pregame coverage, highlights, expert analysis and unforgettable moments. The initiative fosters morale and a sense of community among deployed service members, offering a piece of home far away.
“They’re loving it. I know one of the worries they had in the beginning was, how are they going to be able to watch the games and cheer on Team USA, and thanks to you guys, we’re able to host these games here, and they’re just loving it,” Peoples said. “The atmosphere is electric every night.”

One service member in Japan was able to catch the South Africa vs. Mexico game while on the phone with his mother in the United States.
“They were able to experience that together,” Earhardt said. “What gave you this idea to do this?”
Gray said that a big theme of the USA is “connection,” and allowing service members to watch live sporting events together helps them bond with family members back home. Peoples added that everyone has loved the opportunity to watch the games, and it means a great deal to them.
