Seemes to be a lot of guessing here, the yearly report from Initiative Futures Sports and Entertainment has the numbers and the Uefa's Champions League final has for the first time replaced the NFL's Super Bowl as the most-watched annual sports event.
The Champions League final between Barcelona and Manchester United last May drew an audience of 109 million.
February's Super Bowl between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals attracted three million less.
"While the Super Bowl has secured free-to-air broadcasting deals in a number of important European markets such as the UK, France and Germany, its distribution and popularity in the key Asia-Pacific region lags far behind the Champions League."
World Cup Final in soccer would be far superior though but I highly enjoyed the game last night myself...
