JAKARTA, JOURNALARTA.COM — Portugal vs Uzbekistan opens the June 24 slate at 12:00 a.m. WIB in the 2026 World Cup, and Indonesian viewers can watch it free on TVRI Sport HD through mobile or digital TV. Four Matchday 2 fixtures follow across Groups K and L, with England vs Ghana, Panama vs Croatia, and Colombia vs DR Congo rounding out a packed night.

That makes this a sharp one for fans at home. Midnight starts are never easy. But for supporters tracking Ronaldo, Kane, Modric and the rest, the payoff comes fast: one channel, four matches, no subscription fee.

The midnight kickoff in WIB is equivalent to Tuesday, June 23 at 1:00 p.m. ET in the United States, so viewers should be careful not to mix up the date when setting alarms. A small mistake there means missing the opening whistle. And this schedule is front-loaded.

Portugal vs Uzbekistan puts Ronaldo under early pressure

Portugal enter the game needing points, even if Uzbekistan are not viewed as the toughest opponent in the group. In a short group-stage race, dropping points in a match that looks manageable can quickly complicate the qualification picture.

Cristiano Ronaldo did not score in the opening match, so Matchday 2 carries real weight for him and for Portugal’s rhythm in the tournament. For many viewers, this may be one of the last World Cup nights with the Portuguese captain still at the center of the frame.

England vs Ghana carries a different kind of tension. Mohammed Kudus gives Ghana a direct threat in attack, while Harry Kane remains England’s safest route to goals. Croatia vs Panama could be the quieter match on paper, but Luka Modric and his teammates know a single win can change the shape of Group L very quickly.

How to watch TVRI Sport HD on mobile

TVRI holds the official broadcast rights for 104 matches of the 2026 World Cup, and all of them are free to watch. The broadcaster’s main website, tvri.go.id, does not provide live streaming, but viewers can use TVRI Klik.

On the app route, download TVRI Klik – LPP TVRI from the Play Store or App Store, open the TV Langsung menu, then select TVRI Sport HD. No login. No payment. On a browser, visit tvriklik.tvri.go.id, tap TV Langsung, and choose TVRI Sport HD.

For a 90-minute HD stream, users should prepare around 2–3 GB of data, while a minimum 3 Mbps connection is enough for a stable picture without constant buffering. If two matches run at the same time, one may shift to TVRI Nasional, so it helps to check both channels before kickoff. That detail matters.

What Indonesian viewers should do before kickoff

Anyone planning to stay up for Portugal vs Uzbekistan should open the TVRI Klik app before 11:45 p.m. WIB and check the connection early. It is a simple step, but it saves frustration when the match starts and the screen freezes.

Viewers using digital TV can also scan the UHF frequency and look for TVRI Sport HD, which broadcasts in 1080i without using mobile data. Satellite users can find TVRI on Telkom 4 at frequency 3926 H 4000, with the full channel lineup available through TVRI’s mux list.

Fans should avoid unofficial “free live” links circulating on Facebook, TikTok, and WhatsApp groups. Those streams usually come with heavy ads, poor quality, or malware risks. TVRI Klik remains the official free option, and for June 24 the first whistle comes at 00.00 WIB.
