England’s near-60 year wait for a major football trophy ended last night with a record 17.5M peak audience tuning in to theThe Lionesses’ 2-1 victory in the European Championships final, which included a dramatic winner in Extra Time, obliterated the previous best of 9.3M – achieved just a few day prior for England’s 4-0 semi-final win against Sweden.
Across the broadcast, which ran from 4.50 PM BST to 9.30PM BST , the game was watched by an average 11M viewers, another record high for women’s football, according to Barb data from overnights.tv. It was the second most watched show in terms of average audience this year, slightly behind the coverage of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Last summer’s England men’s European Championships final, which the Lions lost to Italy, was watched by a peak audience of more than 30M, although that game was on both the BBC and ITV.
