Soccer Viewership: MAY 27 - JUNE 9

The UEFA Champions League Final takes the top spot on the week and on YTD.

Highlights/Lowlights:

• From Sports Media Watch: On CBS, viewership trailed only Real Madrid-Liverpool two years ago (2.76M) and Barcelona-Manchester United on FOX in 2011 (2.58M) as the highest on record for the UCL final on English-language television.

• Somewhat surprisingly, the CBS broadcast of the match topped Univision by about one million. In just about every other Span/Eng simulcast the Span-lang comes out on top.

• The Concacaf Champions Cup pulled a lot of interest on Span-lang nets with a solid 868k total across all nets. FS1 could only manage 135 of that total.

• USA v Colombia did well on both Span/Eng.

• In domestic league action, the NWSL's 546k on CBS is the second-best number this calendar year and 5th best since I've been tracking.

• MLS averaged an MLS sub 300k number on FOX.
