FIFA is launching FIFA+, "a digital platform created to connect football fans across the globe more deeply with the game they love, for free," announced the body on 12/04/2022. The platform will initially be available in five languages (French, English, German, Portuguese and Spanish) on web and mobile devices.

FIFA+ offers various services to users: live matches (40,000 matches per year, see details below), access to the FIFA archives (all matches from the men's and women's World Cups), original programmes, information and statistics on men's and women's competitions and interactive games (see below).

"FIFA+ represents the next step in our vision to make football truly global and inclusive, and it underpins FIFA's core mission of expanding and developing football globally. This project represents a cultural shift in the way different types of football fans want to connect with and explore the global game and has been a fundamental part of my Vision 2020-2023. It will accelerate the democratisation of football and we are delighted to share it with fans," said Gianni Infantino…
