How to Watch Man City vs. Atletico Madrid on TV, Live Stream

Manchester City meet Atlético Madrid in Seoul on Sunday, as both teams conclude their summer tours ahead of the 2026–27 season.
While City are playing for the third time in Far East Asia this summer, Atléti are stopping in South Korea for just one friendly. They’ve already faced Manchester United in Sweden, and will return to Europe for another preseason outing before La Liga gets underway.
Diego Simeone is currently leading a youthful roster of players, with Atléti’s next gen out to impress against Enzo Maresca’s Cityzens. City won for the first time under the Italian’s watch against the K-League All Stars, having previously played out a 1–1 draw with Inter Milan.
Meetings between these two clubs have been historically rare, with just two to date. City edged a fraught Champions League quarterfinal 1–0 over two legs in 2022.
Here’s how to tune into Sunday’s preseason friendly around the world.
