Yesterday's game set a new record for German television.

32.57m viewers in Germany (87.8% market share)
11.52m viewers in England (51.0% market share)


So almost a half of Germany was watching? Wow, that's incredible viewing figures. Other channels must hate it when the world cup is on

Considering that a lot of people were watching together with others we can assume that it was more than half of Germany.
And yes, Germany is a football country. We're at least as passionate about it as Brazil or England. A German team playing, be it a friendly or a WC final is generally a national event.


I dont know anyone who did not watch the game. I would assume that more than 50% of the population saw the game, which would be 40+ million.
