FIFA has launched a “plus” service with a surprising feature: no attached dollar sign. FIFA+, a new streaming service announced by the Zurich-based soccer association Tuesday, is free to view online.
The new ad-supported service, available on the web without a sign-in as well as in Android and iOS apps, combines live coverage of some matches and features like “The Happiest Man in the World,” a documentary about Brazilian soccer great Ronaldinho.

“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,” FIFA’s announcement quotes association president Gianni Infantino.

I wonder if FIFA+ will turn up on Pluto, Xumo, etc. eventually, as its content sounds similar to that offered on their MLB and NFL channels -- sports features and documentaries, the difference being that occasional live matches are included in FIFA+.
