Soccer Viewership: JUN 13-19

Mexico vs. the USA on the men's side propels the Concacaf Nations League to the top of the list.

Highlights/Lowlights:

• Univision's coverage of the USMNT takes the top two spots. Mexico is in a bad time with their national team. It's hard to tell exactly how much it impacts viewership because these events are all over the place, but observationally, the stands were empty for some of these matches.

• The Eng-lang surprise of the week is the UEFA Nations League final on FOX. 831k is a strong number for a network that is more a a "world cup" kind of place. The same final two years ago pulled half of that on ESPN.

• The NWSL is staying consistent. 474k for the west coast showdown on CBS is a good number for the league. Not counting the final last year, the NWSL is up about 10% YOY. Need more games to tell if this is a thing or not.

• Euro Qualifiers on FS1 chug along. I think FOX will probably look at pushing a few more up to "big FOX" if they have this event again.
