Match is Third Most-Watched Women's Soccer Match All-Time; Nearly Quadruples Third USA Match in 2011

Vancouver, B.C. - The U.S. Women's National Team beat Nigeria 1-0 in the teams' third and final FIFA WOMEN'S WORLD CUP 2015(TM) Group Stage match last night in Vancouver, British Columbia, to advance to the Round of 16.

- FOX Sports' coverage of the FIFA Women's World Cup 2015(TM) through Monday, plus yesterday's USA-Nigeria match on FOX (all matches for which national figures are available), is averaging 1,044,000 viewers, up +87% vs. the 559,000 viewers averaged on ESPN and ESPN2 in 2011 during Group Stage play.
