Watch Toulon v Toulouse live streams from abroad
En vacances on Sunday afternoon? Even if you’re overeas there’s no need to worry about missing the last of this weekend’s European Champions Cup quarter-finals. Although geo-blocking can get in the way of watching your usual streaming services when you’re away from home, a handy little piece of software called a VPN can be your saviour.
A VPN (or, to give it it’s full name, a Virtual Private Network) can help you tune in as if you were sitting on your sofa back home. It performs this neat little trick by changing your device’s IP address, making your smartphone, tablet or computer appear to be in a totally different country. This allows you to watch geo-blocked internet streams and, as an added bonus, VPNs can also improve your security and privacy when you’re online.

Our smart office mates at TechRadar – who know a thing or two about such things – have tested hundreds of VPNs, and they reckon the best of the bunch is NordVPN. Even better, NordVPN offers a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support, and it’s currently available at a knockdown price.

Toulon v Toulouse: Match Preview
Reigning European champions Toulouse head into Sunday’s match on the back of a 100% record in this season’s tournament. However, their round-of-16 tie against Sale Sharks – delayed by a parachutist trapped in the stands – was a closer game than they’d probably have hoped for.
The Top 14 leaders certainly wouldn’t have expected to have been trailing at half-time, though they did eventually run out 38-15 winners. The match also saw star Italian winger Ange Capuozzo pick up a nasty-looking injury while scoring a try which, coupled with the absence of France captain Antoine Dupont, will make the match even more challenging – even for this exciting team of rugby galacticos.
Three-time European champions Toulon have home advantage and plenty of internationals of their own, including England exiles Lewis Ludlam, David Ribbans and Kyle Sinckler. Toulon’s own last-16 match against an understrength Saracens was a 16-try epic they eventually won 72-42, with Facundo Isa and Melvyn Jaminet both scoring hat-tricks.
The question is, can they keep the tries flowing against their much-fancied French rivals?
