THE United States' 5-2 victory over Japan in the Women's World Cup final was seen by 25.4 million viewers on Fox - a record for any football game, men's or women's, shown on English-language television in the United States.
With nearly 1.3 million viewers watching on Telemundo, the Spanish-language station, the total of 26.7 million also exceeds the record 26.5 million combined viewers that saw Germany beat Argentina in last year's men's World Cup final on ABC and Spanish-language Univision.
