Kinda embarrassed to ask but are there lower cost streaming alternatives to AppleTV+SeasonPass to watch matches at home?

Wow haha. So I just found out that my wife already has an AppleTV+ subscription shared with me, so I guess I just have to shell out for the MLS add-on which is tolerable I guess. I was thinking last night that if I was to go out a sports bar/restaurant to watch every game I’d still be shelling out cash every time there as well.
Nevertheless, it looks like this Sunday’s game against Philly is free on AppleTV+ and broadcast on Fox
FWIW, you don't need Apple TV+ to get the MLS subscription -- they're independent of each other.
So uh would I just watch directly from the MLS website? When I visit its “watch” page, everything seems to direct me to AppleTV? Anyhow I guess I’m currently good with AppleTV+ since my wife is already paying for it… but maybe this might help for others
I'm not an AppleTV subscriber, I'm an MLS Season Pass subscriber. I can watch the ATL games, but I can't watch Ted Lasso. They aren't tied together other than both are serviced by Apple. There may be benefits of subscribing to both, but I don't know what they are. ETA: in other words, you are not good to watch it via your wife's AppleTV unless your wife is also a subscriber to MLS Season Pass.
Oh man. Thanks for all this info… but I can’t help feeling an overwhelming sense of old man yells at clouds vibe bubbling within me whenever I think about the state of tv these days
You'll need to sign up for Apple TV (free), but you don't need TV+.
