Where to watch the 2022 World Cup on U.S. TV

World Cup 2022 kicks off in Qatar on November 20 and it will be the first-ever winter World Cup as France looks to retain its crown after lifting the prestigious trophy at the 2018 tournament in Russia.
Stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will be there too, with Portugal and Argentina respectively, while the likes of the U.S. men's national team, Mexico and Canada will keen to lay down a marker ahead of their hosting duties at the next edition.
If you're to tune in and keep up with your national side, here's how you can watch the World Cup games in the United States.
