In this guide I’m going to show you the quickest, easiest and cheapest way to watch the Copa Del Rey Final in the UK and anywhere else between Athletic Bilbao and Barcelona.
All it needs is 5 minutes of your time and to follow 6 simple steps.
The Copa Del Rey is the biggest cup competition in Spain and sees the largest teams in Spain going head to head in a knock-out competition to reach the final.
Often the final ends up with two of the best teams in Spain and Barcelona and Real Madrid have featured many times.
This year it’s the turn of Athletic Club (Bilbao) who were recently beaten by Real Sociedad in the late final of the 2020 competition and Barcelona.
If you’re in the UK then the options to watch the Copa Del Rey can be extremely limited. It’s officially being shown on Sky Sports but if you don’t have access to a Sky or cable subscription then you’re out of luck.
Thankfully there’s an alternative way you can watch without having a cable or Sky subscription and it doesn’t involve any sketchy or dodgy streams either.
Where to watch Copa Del Rey Final
In the UK the Copa Del Rey Final is being shown exclusively on Sky Sports but in other countries it’s being shown by a variety of networks.
In many countries like Russia the network MatchTV that is showing the Copa Del Rey final is free but if you’re outside Russia you’ll be blocked from watching.
By using a simple app called a VPN you can make it appear as if you are in Russia and watch the Copa Del Rey Final in the UK or in fact anywhere else in the world. So if you want to watch Bilbao and Barcelona in full swing, this is the answer to your needs.
A VPN will cost you a couple of pounds or dollars for a months subscription and you can use it to watch other events too such as the Champions League and more.
Just follow the step-by-step guide below and you can watch all the Copa Del Rey Final action live online.

Are VPN Services Legal?
There’s no need to worry because VPN services are completely legal.
Their purpose is to protect your online privacy and part of how it does this is by disguising what country you’re in.
The MatchTV website that shows the Copa Del Rey Final in Russia restricts viewing to those in Russia only. A VPN allows you to pretend you are in Russia so to the website it seems like you are in Russia and lets you watch the final in the UK or anywhere else.
