Globo shows 55 matches as France Vs Sweden leaves open TV

France vs Sweden will not air on Globo’s open TV on Tuesday, 30/06, at 18h Brasília time in New Jersey, United States. Viewers in Brazil who rely on that signal will need another screen for one of the tournament’s more visible games.

Globo is carrying only a reduced package of the Copa do Mundo de 2026, and that limit is why França x Suécia falls outside open TV. The broadcaster will show 55 of the 104 matches, spread across open TV and channels in its group.

Globo and the 55-match cut

The coverage plan is shaped by the tournament’s expansion from 32 to 48 teams and from 64 to 104 matches. Globo has chosen to concentrate its package on the Seleção Brasileira, the most attractive group-stage matches, and the main knockout-stage duels, which leaves other high-profile fixtures off open TV even when they carry wider interest.

That is the practical break for France x Sweden. Mbappé and Haaland give the match a draw that would usually travel far beyond a niche audience, yet Globo’s open TV schedule cannot absorb every major game once the rights package is trimmed to 55 matches.

CazéTV and Prime Video

CazéTV will transmit França x Suécia live and holds the rights to all 104 matches of the Copa do Mundo de 2026. Amazon subscribers will also be able to watch every match on Prime Video, with broadcasts from Globo and CazéTV feeding that service.

For viewers in Brazil, the choice is no longer about whether the match exists on TV. It is about which platform carries it, and for França x Suécia the answer is outside Globo’s open channel and inside the broader digital package.
