Soccer fans in Ireland can watch the 2025 UCL qualifier between Celtic and Kairat live for FREE on RTE via the RTE 2 channel.
RTE 2 is a free-to-air channel in Ireland, you don't even need an account!

We watched RTE's coverage of the 2025 Champions League and the coverage was superb.
How to watch Celtic vs Kairat live streams from anywhere
Although RTE is only available to Irish residents, those who are from the Ireland but visiting the likes of the U.S., U.K. and Canada can stream it through the use of VPN (Virtual Private Network).
The software sets your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So, it's ideal for sports fans away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:
NordVPN deal: 3 Months Extra Free
Boasting lightning fast speeds, great features, streaming power, and class-leading security, NordVPN is our #1 VPN.
✅3 months extra FREE!
✅74% off usual price
Use Nord to unblock RTE and watch Celtic vs Kairat live online with our exclusive deal.
It is really easy to watch, here's how.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Irish service, you'd select Ireland from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to RTE Player or another streaming service and watch the action.
