YouTube TV Goes Down During World Cup
The Croatia scored and the score is 1-1 against the England. If you are a YouTube TV subscriber, you might not know about the YouTube TV was down for almost 40 minutes.
Update: it’s back just in a time for extra time. People who have paid $40 a month to subscribe the live TV on YouTube are arguably mad.
One of the most reasons on YouTube TV it that it makes sense is that it lets you watch the live TV sports.
You will not find any soccer match on Netflix or HBO Now after all.
YouTube has tweeted about the issues, but this isn’t quick downtime.
As Owen Williams tweeted, that if Google is not ready to keep the live stream up even during the Word Cup, that it is unclear that which of the company can do it. Maybe our live streaming is not yet ready.
Hey everyone — sincere apologies for streaming issues with YouTube TV. The timing is horrible but we’re working to be up and running again ASAP!

We’re watching the FIFA on YouTube TV and it’s completely down. If Google can’t keep it online in a surge like this, nobody can. https://t.co/Jeed9kZY5b

Of course @YouTubeTV (which I bought for the sole purpose of watching the WC) goes down during the semifinals. pic.twitter.com/LNmFFlbsYd
