Can I use a VPN to watch DFB-Pokal outside Germany?
Some DFB-Pokal viewers may use a VPN server in Germany to watch on ZDF, ARD, or WOW. You should be aware that doing so may violate copyright law and go against PIA’s terms of service.
PIA VPN puts your privacy first and we never keep tabs on our users’ activity. In fact, when you use PIA, even we can’t see what you’re using it for. That said, we support the media industry and urge you to carefully read your streaming platform’s terms and conditions.
Will the DFB-Pokal 2023-24 Season Be the Best Yet?
The DFB-Pokal is returning for its 81st season. 64 teams of all skill levels will compete to leave their mark in German football history.
RB Leipzig is working hard to snatch the DFB Cup for the third season in a row. Their chances are good, especially after crushing the giant Bayern Munich 3-0 and winning the 2023 DFL SuperCup, but there’s always the possibility of a smaller club taking the trophy.

Why Watch the DFB-Pokal with a VPN?
If you’re traveling abroad, you may lose access to the streaming services you use back home. This means you could miss out on DFB-Pokal matches, but there’s an easy solution. Buy PIA VPN and connect to a server in your home country to mask your IP address and access DFB-Pokal coverage like you never left home.
If streaming services are blocked at your school or workplace, PIA can help there, too. Our VPN encrypts your connection so that your network won’t be able to detect that you’re connected to a streaming service. This allows you to bypass network blocks so you can watch German football without restrictions.
