June 11, 2019
England’s win over Scotland in the Women’s World Cup on June 9th was the UK’s most watched women’s football match of all time, drawing a peak of 6.1 million viewers on BBC television.
The figure – 37.8 per cent of the available audience – breaks the previous record of four million viewers for England’s Euro 2017 semi-final against the Netherlands.
Ellen White and Nikita Parris scored the goals for England in the 2-1 victory, with Claire Emslie replying late in the game for Scotland.
