842,000 tune in for Socceroos’ final outing at FIFA World Cup against Peru
Australia’s final group-round match in the 2018 FIFA World Cup drew in 842,000 metro viewers, according to OzTAM’s preliminary overnight ratings.
The first match against France attracted 1.653m metro viewers, while the second against Denmark had 1.655m. The match overnight against Peru, however, had a later kick-off time, starting at midnight in the eastern states, compared to the previous matches which started at 8pm and 10pm respectively (AEST).
It was harsh viewing for Socceroos fans, but Peru’s first goal at a #WorldCup in 36 years was a brilliant strike. Congratulations to them. #AUSPER pic.twitter.com/4OLXQycZoI
