Globo hits ratings record with Flamengo v Palmeiras in the Libertadores | OneFootball

Globo achieved its best rating of the year with Flamengo’s football title

The Red-Black Nation is celebrating Flamengo’s fourth Copa Libertadores da América championship. However, it’s not just the fans who are grinning from ear to ear. Globo, which broadcast the final against Palmeiras to all of Brazil, managed to break the season’s audience record.

According to Kantar Ibope Media, the final of the Copa Libertadores peaked at 39 points and 63% share of TVs turned on. This figure surpassed the previous record, which was also held by Flamengo, in a match against Bayern Munich (GER) at the Club World Cup. On that occasion, there were 38 points and a 60% share.

Compared to the yearly average, there was a 58% increase and a 29-point share gain compared to the same time slot over the previous four Saturdays. Adding up Globo’s entire broadcast, which started at 4:28 PM and ended at 8:49 PM, the average was 32 points and a 52% share.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE RATINGS FOR THE ARRIVAL?

Flamengo kept Globo smiling on Sunday (30th) as well. With the impressive fan celebration upon arrival in Rio de Janeiro, the network achieved 15 points and a 34% share from 12:30 PM to 2:16 PM, a Sunday record since July 2024.

According to Kantar Ibope Media, one ratings point means 48,836 households and 120,893 people in the Rio de Janeiro Metropolitan Area. It’s worth noting that the match in São Paulo did not break the record, as it reached 28 points, losing out to Ecuador vs. Brazil, which scored 30 in the São Paulo capital.

ARE MORE AUDIENCE RECORDS ON THE WAY?

Globo is expected to have another huge audience this Wednesday (3rd), when Flamengo faces Ceará in the penultimate round of the Brasileirão. The match kicks off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) at Maracanã, with full coverage from Coluna do Fla.
