Soccer Viewership: JAN 8 - 14

Manchester City vs. Newcastle on NBC tops the week with a rare appearance of Real Madrid vs Barcelona on ABC right behind it.

Highlights/Lowlights:

• 1.29m for a NBC PL matchup is on the high end for the network

• The Super Copa matchup seemingly came out of nowhere. ABC will be very happy with that number but Barca v Real seems to be the only one that picks up over 1m viewers for the Spanish league.

• Liga MX had a quiet week on Univision. Club America failed to top 1m on UNI+TUDN in primetime. Possibly because of the NFL.
