How to Watch Argentina vs Benin Live in Ireland

In Ireland the Argentina vs Benin live stream is on Premier Sports, the same coverage as the UK. You need a subscription. It is not on RTÉ. Dublin, Cork and Galway all start at midnight, the beginning of Wednesday, 7 October 2026.

Where is the live stream in Ireland?

Premier Sports has the three October friendlies in Ireland, the same as in the UK. Bolivia, Burkina Faso and Argentina vs Benin are all on that service. You need the subscription. The website stream is for customers, not a second free feed.

RTÉ showed World Cup matches. It has not been named for this friendly. Do not wait on the RTÉ Player. If Premier Sports is in your television package, that is the live stream. If it is not, there is no free Irish channel to switch to.

Guides do not always agree on Premier Sports 1 versus Premier Sports 2. The company is not in doubt. The number is. On the night, look at both. The one with Argentina is the match. A listing that says 9:00pm on Tuesday is the wrong hour. Midnight is the kick-off.

How to watch

1. Check that Premier Sports is in your package, or sign in on the Premier Sports site.
2. Search Argentina vs Benin. Ignore a 9:00pm slot.
3. If one Premier Sports channel is showing something else, try the other.
4. Stay on that service. A free link in a group chat is not this broadcast.

Ireland is on the same Premier Sports coverage as the UK. The hour is midnight, not 9:00pm. RTÉ showed World Cup matches. It has not been named for this friendly.

The UK page is the same broadcaster with a note on the channel number. How to watch the live stream in the UK uses midnight as well, because Ireland and Britain are on the same summer time for this week.

Premier Sports is a paid channel. If it is not in your package, the site will ask you to subscribe before the live stream plays. There is no second, free Irish stream sitting behind it. Do not pay a different website that claims to unlock Premier Sports. Sign in on Premier Sports itself.

Dublin, Cork and Galway are the same hour. You do not need a separate alarm for the west coast. Friends in Britain are also at midnight. Friends in mainland Europe are an hour later, at 1:00am. If a group chat mixes those, keep the Irish one. A 9:00pm plan will have you finished and in bed before the teams walk out.

Telefe and TyC Sports are the Argentina live streams. They are free on Telefe inside Argentina. They are not the Irish broadcast, and they often will not play from an Irish address. You already have a named live stream. Use that one.

What time does the live stream start in Ireland?

Midnight, as Tuesday becomes Wednesday, 7 October. Dublin, Cork and Galway share that hour. In Buenos Aires it is still 8:00pm on Tuesday. The kick-off time in Ireland uses this same midnight.

A 1:00am tip is the later friendlies, which start at 9:00pm in Argentina. Benin is the 8:00pm match. Build-up can start before twelve. The live stream of the match is midnight. The Argentina vs Benin live score stays empty until the referee starts the game. Other countries are on the TV channel list.

Conclusion

Ireland watches Argentina vs Benin on Premier Sports, and the subscription is required. RTÉ is not the channel for this friendly. The live stream starts at midnight at the beginning of Wednesday, 7 October. If a guide says 9:00pm, it is wrong. Use Premier Sports, and use the UK note only to check which channel number is actually showing the teams.
