The rapid finale of the 2022 Qatar World Cup dominated Sunday afternoon television on TVE, with the Argentina versus France match delivering a strong crowd. The game secured a share well above average, drawing 62.2 percent of viewers and an audience near 9.8 million on La 1, comfortably surpassing the 2018 World Cup final figures in Russia broadcast by Telecinco by several percentage points.
As the match extended into extra time, figures rose to a 66.2 percent share and about 11.2 million viewers. The decisive moments, including Lionel Messi and his teammates clinching the win in a dramatic penalty shootout, produced peak ratings around 69.7 percent and roughly 12.2 million viewers.
The World Cup kept other afternoon offerings to a minimum. The program Party halved its audience to 6.5 percent and 1.0 million viewers across a five hour slot, while Rock on LaSexta posted very modest results at 1.5 percent with 232,000 viewers.
La 1 led prime time with the movie Revenge: Istanbul Connection posting a 14.2 percent share and 1.97 million viewers. Family secrets followed with a 13.8 percent share and 1.48 million, and a debate titled Nightmare in Heaven drew 9.5 percent and 885,000 viewers.
