PSG's defeat against Bayern Munich did not achieve a very good audience on Canal+ Foot on Tuesday evening. It was even one of the worst audiences of the club's Champions League season.
The Bayern/PSG clash was tempting on paper, but unfortunately resulted in a sad 1-0 defeat. In terms of audiences, this match was not a hit, quite the contrary, since it attracted only 1.23 million viewers on average according to Médiamétrie data relayed by L'Equipe.
Bayern/PSG attracted fewer people than PSG/Girona
This is much more than the audience for Barça/Brest (262,000 viewers on average) and the multiplex (252,000), but it remains disappointing compared to the other European audiences of the season, which are already quite timid. The Bayern/PSG match was broadcast on Canal+ Foot, a channel to which not all Canal subscribers have access, and this may be an explanation, but this season's Arsenal/PSG was also broadcast on Canal+ Foot and attracted 1.48 million viewers on average.
Even the match against Girona, admittedly broadcast on Canal+, had worked better at the start of the season (1.34 million). Last year, the PSG/Newcastle match (1-1) of the 5th day of the group stage of the Champions League was also broadcast on Canal+ Foot and had a huge audience with 1.86 million people watching. the match on average. Audiences that seem very distant now…
