If I were to find an illegal stream to watch tonight's match, will anything happen to my iMac? I use Safari.

Maybe, maybe not. Given that anyone willing to break a law to stream a game already demonstrates a lack of respect for the owner of the game rights, why would they respect your ownership of your Mac? Beyond the ethics of watching something illegally obtained, you will be exposing your iMac to someone who just doesn't care about laws or ownership. Think about that.

Frankly, I would not do it.

if I were to find an illegal stream

The answer is in your statement above. If you know it's illegal................ Don't.

Not moralising, just being practical.
