Major League Soccer has had an ever-growing increase in viewership over the last half-decade, with the quality of the league on the rise. After years of lagging behind other sports in the United States, soccer at the highest level has finally started catching up and taking over.
A massive set of eyeballs is peering into the North American soccer scene, and live telecasts and streaming options have already had a great amount of discussion all around the globe, especially with the major broadcasting deal that has been signed between the MLS and Apple TV.
Here is everything you need to know about where and how you can watch MLS from the comfort of your couch.
How to watch & stream MLS games on TV & online
