I don't like this new FIFA+ interface. It lacks the best thing about YouTube, the ability to rewind through the timeline to rewatch bits. I started watching 1 minute in and missed the first goal in Central v WSAFC
Yes, I was disappointed watching the Ferns match live that I couldn't rewind or pause the live action when I left for a toilet break or to make a cuppa.
Which means I'll probably wait till after a match has finished to watch it on demand instead.
Though they seem to have as many ads as You Tube when watching an on demand video.
However.....
A tech-savvy friend just recommended I install this free software on my computer and I can say it works very well in blocking nearly all ads online (on websites and when watching videos).
I'm finding that it blocks all ads on FIFA+ for a much better viewing experience.
I use it on my laptop's Chrome browser.
It's free ad blocker software installed on my laptop for Chrome.
It's called "ublock origin" and is free.
It's a fairly new one and I found in fact it blocks all ads when playing videos on FIFA+  (as it does on You Tube)
Details here: 
Scroll down to the bottom and choose whichever browser you use under "Platforms"

I have it installed for Chrome - easy to turn on and off by clicking "Chrome extensions" tab at top right)

Reviews by PC Magazine of the top five ad blockers (ublock is the best):

A tip if you are having problems with lagging when watching videos on FIFA+  - click on the cog symbol at top right every time when playing a video and select "HD" rather than the default "HD+" which I found causes the video to lag.
HD works fine for me on my laptop.
