SOCCER NUMBERS

Before the tournament started, it was speculated the tournament games involving Canada would average 500,000 viewers.

The CBC ended up with an average of 497,000 for the three Canadian games — a good number, considering the home side couldn't score a goal and was barely competitive.

Viewership for the non-Canadian telecasts exceeded expectations. Last Thursday's Chile-Argentina semi-final was tops with an audience of 485,000 viewers.

The average audience for the knockout round was 248,000. The four quarter-final telecasts averaged 345,000 viewers. The Austria-Czech Republic semi-final drew 344,000, bringing the semi-final average to 415,000.

The inaugural Soccer Day in Canada, which aired on July 8, drew well. The two-hour features segment from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. EDT averaged 113,000 viewers. That was followed by two good audiences, 327,000 for Portugal-Gambia and 532,000 for Canada-Congo.
