The most-watched soccer games in U.S. television and online streaming history

Over the years, I've tried to maintain a list of the most-watched soccer games in U.S. television history. I've kept press releases and other data that I've been sent, and in recent times that data has also included online streaming audiences.

Over the years, I've tried to maintain a list of the most-watched soccer games in U.S. television history. I've kept press releases and other data that I've been sent, and in recent times that data has also included online streaming audiences.

I've put all that data into a spreadsheet that you can peruse below. It will be updated over time as new benchmarks are reached.

Thanks to many friends at ESPN, Fox, Univision and Telemundo for sending me data that reaches all the way back to the 1994 World Cup. I am pretty sure that this list includes every game that has ever drawn at least 10 million viewers.

I hope you find the list interesting. I certainly enjoyed putting it together.
