re: Best way to watch game this weekend in Europe

ESPNPlayer.com is the international equivalent of the WatchESPN app in the US. You can get a monthly subscription for about $20, and there is a 7 day free trial. The video quality is excellent, depending only on the bandwidth of your local connection there.

But it depends where in Europe you're going to be. It works through all of western Europe, except Italy.

WatchESPN is geo-blocked, meaning you can't watch it directly from outside the USA. Using WatchESPN over a US-based VPN (which shows you as being in the US) does also work, but the problem is you are then streaming across the Atlantic, and the quality won't be that good. ESPNPlayer is much better, because you are then only streaming from local servers in Europe.

Don't forget the time difference - the game starts at 8pm, so that's 2am in the UK, 3am or 4am on the continent! So you probably won't find any sports bars open, and even if you did it is doubtful that they would be showing this game.
