Mexico-England sets new Spanish-language World Cup viewership record

The Mexico-England match garnered a preliminary average of 23.1 million viewers on July 6, setting a new record for Spanish-language World Cup broadcasts. Telemundo reported that this figure includes 9.4 million viewers measured by Nielsen on its platform and 13 million from Peacock. Previous records were held by the Mexico-Ecuador match, which averaged 18.9 million viewers. With Mexico's exit from the tournament, Telemundo's record-setting run could be at an end, despite strong viewership in other matches such as Brazil-Norway, which averaged 12.9 million viewers. Final numbers and additional metrics will be released later this week.
