How to watch Argentina vs Benin live on ViX Premium in Mexico

Mexican fans can watch Lionel Messi's Argentina farewell live: ViX Premium holds the Mexico streaming rights for Argentina vs Benin, kicking off at 5 PM Mexico City time on Tuesday 6 October 2026. Here is how to subscribe and watch on every device.

Quick answer

Watch Argentina vs Benin live on ViX Premium in Mexico on Tuesday 6 October 2026 — kickoff is 5:00 PM Mexico City time. ViX’s own site lists the farewell under ‘Amistosos Internacionales’ as a Premium event, and the platform has the exclusive Mexico streaming rights for Argentina’s October friendly series.

Which ViX plan shows Argentina vs Benin in Mexico?

Argentina vs Benin is a ViX Premium event — it will not be on the free ViX tier. The match is already listed on vix.com under ‘Amistosos Internacionales’ for October 6, and Mexico’s sports press confirms ViX Premium as the exclusive home of Argentina’s friendlies in the country, starting with Argentina vs Bolivia.

Sign up at vix.com or in the ViX app, choose the Premium plan and check the current Mexico price before subscribing. Once your account is active, the farewell streams live with pre-match build-up on matchday.

How to stream Argentina vs Benin on ViX Premium

Streaming is straightforward: download the ViX app on your phone (iOS or Android), smart TV, Roku, Fire TV or console, or just open vix.com in a browser and log in with your Premium account. On matchday, open the Argentina vs Benin listing under ‘Amistosos Internacionales’ and you are in.

ViX Premium allows multiple simultaneous streams depending on your plan, so the family can watch on the TV and on phones at the same time. Make sure your app is updated before kickoff — you do not want an update prompt at 5 PM.

What time does Argentina vs Benin start in Mexico?

Kickoff is Tuesday 6 October 2026 at 20:00 in Buenos Aires (23:00 UTC), which is 5:00 PM Mexico City time — an afternoon kickoff, perfect for watching live.

One caution: ViX’s schedule page displays the match as 6:00 PM in some app locales, so double-check the time shown inside your own ViX app on matchday. Whatever it shows, the match starts at 23:00 UTC.

Is ViX Premium the only way to watch in Mexico?

For a legal live stream, yes — ViX Premium is Mexico’s confirmed and exclusive home for Argentina’s October friendlies, including Messi’s farewell. No Mexican free-to-air or pay-TV channel has announced the match.

Stay away from pirate streams: they are illegal, they buffer at the worst moments, and a farewell this historic deserves a clean feed. The official ViX Premium stream is the only one guaranteed to be there when Messi walks off at full time.
