How to watch Brazil vs Mexico: live stream World Cup football free from anywhere

It's one of the most enticing round of 16 fixtures at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, as Brazil and Mexico face off in an all-Latin American duel for a place in the quarter-finals – and you're in the right place if you need to know how to watch the action with a free live stream.

But will we see the Mexico that looked so impressive against Germany and South Korea, or the side that surrendered tamely to Sweden?
