BYUtv to show South Korea v Trinidad & Tobago as Greg Wrubell leads coverage from Provo

Match date: 31 May 2026

South Korea v Trinidad & Tobago in the international friendly on 31 May 2026 will be shown in the UK and beyond on BYUtv and the BYUtv App, with Greg Wrubell on main commentary, Landon Southwick as co-commentator and Spencer Linton reporting from the ground. BYU has confirmed that the match is part of its live coverage of Korea Republic’s pre-World Cup friendlies at South Field in Provo, Utah, and that the game will be broadcast live worldwide on BYUtv and BYUtv.org.[7]

The fixture is listed as a Men’s International Soccer Friendly in ESPN’s schedule, while DirecTV’s guide also confirms the match as Korea Republic vs. Trinidad and Tobago (2026) and places it at South Field in Provo, Utah.[1][2][3] For British viewers, the key detail is that the match is available through the BYUtv platforms rather than one of the usual UK broadcasters, so access is tied to the channel and its app rather than traditional terrestrial coverage.[7]

Greg Wrubell is a familiar voice for BYU followers. He has long been associated with BYU sports broadcasting, particularly college football and basketball, and is known for his play-by-play work on Cougars coverage. His involvement gives this friendly a very recognisable local broadcast feel, even though the audience is international.

Landon Southwick adds analysis as co-commentator. Southwick has built his profile around BYU sports coverage and brings a presenter-pundit blend that suits a pre-tournament friendly, where context and tactical detail matter as much as the action itself.

Spencer Linton is listed as reporter and is best known in the US sports media landscape as a long-time BYUtv presenter and host. His experience in studio and on-location coverage means the broadcast will likely lean on strong pitchside interviews, team news and reaction rather than a heavily produced global-feed format.

The match itself is being staged in Provo, Utah, and BYU’s own announcement says Korea Republic will also play El Salvador there on 3 June. The university said both friendlies were scheduled for 7 p.m. local time, underlining the event’s role as part of Korea’s build-up before major international competition.[7] ESPN’s listings also place South Korea against Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday, 31 May in the international friendly calendar.[2][3][4]

For UK readers searching for where to watch, the answer is straightforward: BYUtv / BYUtv App. There is no indication in the supplied listings of a BBC, ITV, Sky Sports or TNT Sports broadcast for this fixture, so the BYUtv route is the relevant one for live coverage.[7]

If you are following the teams rather than the broadcast, the match offers South Korea another chance to fine-tune before upcoming international commitments, while Trinidad and Tobago use the fixture as valuable opposition against a higher-profile Asian side. The setting, commentary team and university-hosted broadcast package make this a slightly unusual friendly, but one with clear appeal for fans who enjoy international football outside the headline tournaments.
