How to watch today’s Haiti vs New Zealand Friendlies game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time
Today’s game between Haiti and New Zealand will kick-off at Jun 2, 2026, 8:00 PM.
Haiti vs New Zealand is available to watch live in the United States. TV channel and live stream options are listed below.
Haiti and New Zealand meet in an international friendly that carries more weight than the fixture type might suggest. Both nations are preparing for their respective Group stage campaigns at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and this match offers each side a final opportunity to sharpen their preparations.
For Haiti, the stakes feel particularly significant. Les Grenadiers are making only their second-ever World Cup appearance and their first since 1974, when they became one of the first Caribbean nations to reach the tournament. Their Group C draw places them against Scotland, Brazil, and Morocco — a formidable set of opponents that makes every minute of pre-tournament preparation count.
New Zealand arrive in good spirits after a commanding 4-1 win over Chile in their most recent outing. The All Whites face Group G opponents Iran, Egypt, and Belgium at the World Cup, and head coach will be looking to build on that momentum before the tournament begins.
Haiti’s recent form has been a mixed picture. Back-to-back wins over Nicaragua and Costa Rica in CONCACAF World Cup Qualification showed their competitive quality, but a pair of March friendlies — a draw with Iceland and a defeat to Tunisia — suggest there is still work to do against varied opposition.
The intrigue around this fixture extends off the pitch too. New Zealand defender Tim Payne became an unlikely internet sensation in the build-up to the World Cup after a viral social media campaign pushed his Instagram following to 2.5 million, making the veteran full-back one of the tournament’s most-talked-about figures before a ball has been kicked.
With both squads finalising their World Cup rosters — FIFA’s deadline for final player lists fell on June 1 — this friendly serves as a last chance for fringe players to make their case and for coaches to settle on their preferred systems.
Here is everything you need to know about where to watch Haiti vs New Zealand, including TV channel, live stream options, and kick-off time.
