@thejapantimes
Worth noting that despite the 100s of $billions poured into the #ClubWorldCup, the UK TV audience was greater for the Women's Euros pool match between England & Wales (4.4m peak) than for Chelsea v. PSG in the #ClubWorldCupFinal (2.3m peak)!
Even the Euros U21 Final in June had a bigger audience (3.7m).
