Missing late-night World Cup matches creates a genuine dilemma for UK viewers. When Morocco faces Spain at 10pm or Argentina takes on Mexico at 7pm, many fans face an impossible choice: sacrifice sleep or risk spoilers the next morning.

BBC Sport has launched a clever solution at bbc.co.uk/nospoilers that delivers match highlights without revealing results. The service links directly to a BBC iPlayer highlights page where you can watch goals and key moments while staying blissfully unaware of final scores.

While the seven-goal thrillers might hint at excitement levels, the broadcaster deliberately avoids showing winners or full-time scores. BBC's regular coverage continues unchanged across their website, app, and standard World Cup pages, preserving traditional viewing habits for those who want complete information.

The spoiler-free option works seamlessly on TV too through the World Cup destination page. Bookmarking the nospoilers link means you can catch up on Portugal versus Ghana without knowing Ronaldo's fate. Just don't blame the BBC if you spend seven minutes watching a goalless draw you could have skipped entirely.
