Top 20 Most-Viewed Sports Events for Week of June 24-30: FIFA Confederations Cup Final Edition
Ugh. Univision didn’t even publicize numbers for the semifinals of the Confederations Cup, Paulsen didn’t have them himself, and I’m not sure SBD would have provided them even if they hadn’t taken the week off for the Fourth of July. The combined numbers for those could be as high as 1.6 million or even higher. Thanks for ruining my planned year-end roundup, Univision. I know the composition of the top 20 but unfortunately can’t vouch for the exact order.
