Almost two million viewers watched as the Netherlands was eliminated in their World Cup match against Morocco, which ended in a penalty shootout.
A close to two million viewers watched the Dutch national team get eliminated by Morocco early Tuesday morning after a penalty shootout. The live broadcast of the match was the most-watched TV program on that Tuesday. The viewership surpassed that of the Netherlands-Tunisia match, which started at 1:00 AM and attracted an average of 1.6 million viewers. Notably, matches against Sweden (4.7 million viewers) and Japan (4.2 million viewers) drew significantly larger audiences, as those games were played at more favorable times of 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM, respectively. It's important to note that these preliminary figures do not include individuals who watched the match on delay, nor do they account for those who viewed it in public settings such as cafes, canteens, or public squares.
