Just saw that the peak for yesterday's game was 30.22m just before the game finished (~8pm)

Best result for the German team was the semi finals against Spain in 2010 with 31.1 million viewers and 32.9m during the peak.

Damn, that's massive. That's almost 1/3 Germans watching it! If you look at the highest rated broadcasts in each country, all of Germany's broadcasts are sports events except for one. The UK on the other hand has mostly soap opera's, sitcom's, TV movies, and entertainment events as their most watched broadcasts.
