Soccer Viewership: MAY 31-JUN 6

 It was a busy international break last week with the USMNT friendly vs. Uruguay topping the table.

Highlights/Lowlights:

• The US Men's National Team did okay on FOX with 866k and another 322k on TUDN. The number is somewhere around what I would expect, so that must be pretty good news for the networks that carried the match. 

• Interest in FS1's UEFA Nations League is poor. FOX just isn't a good partner for soccer. These games do 3x the numbers here on ABC or CBS networks. It's a misfire.
