Mexico may have been knocked out of the World Cup, but its successful run to the knockout stage helped to shatter all-time streaming records at FOX Sports and Telemundo.
FOX Sports, the exclusive English-language broadcast rights holder of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, set an all-time streaming record on Monday during the Brazil-Mexico match. The Jun. 27 Mexico-Sweden match on Telemundo holds the all-time Spanish-language record with 6.9 million live streams, the most for any event in NBC Sports Digital history, excluding past Super Bowls.
On FOX, the 2-0 knockout stage event clocked in as the most-streamed match of the tournament-to-date and the top-authenticated streaming event in FOX Sports’ history.
