Liga MX wraps up their Apertura season with Pachuca blowing out Toluca 8-2 over two legs last week. 1.7m and 1.9m on Univision are impressive numbers.
Highlights/Lowlights:
• The two-legged Liga MX final matches finish up 3rd and 6th overall in calendar year 2022 most watched games.
Top 3, 2022
2.8m UEFA Champions League Final (CBS)
1.96m Seleccion Mexicana v Colombia (UNI)
1.94m Liga MX Final (2nd leg - UNI)
• The NWSL finished the year strong with a primetime Championship on CBS. Nearly 1m tuned in to watch Saturday evening. NWSL will be happy with that number, but I think that more or less the ceiling for the league ("MLS-Like" setup brings similar numbers being the reason).
• The Premier League had a strong weekend with 5 games finishing over 400k. Leeds finally doing a little better, although with a little help. Add in the Universo number and the match against Liverpool topped 500k.
• Major League Soccer's ABC conference final pulled a solid 519k (+107k on ESPN Deportes). LAFC reaching the final is a "win" for the league. I don't have a prediction for the final on FOX but look for it to do near what it always does (~1m on Eng-lang). Univision will carry it on Span-lang).
• MLS ends 2022 on ESPN down -6% and down -11% on FS1 YOY. I'll have final ABC and FOX numbers once the season wraps up this weekend.
