FOX Sports 1’s coverage of USA against Colombia in the Round of 16 game in the Women’s World Cup was viewed by 4.7 million people, setting a new record for soccer on FOX Sports 1, beating the previous mark of 3.3 million set earlier in the tournament for the USA-Australia game.

It’s the most watched soccer game on US cable since last year’s men’s World Cup.

That one peaked at 6.3 million viewers opposite the NBA Finals, and was the third most-watched women’s soccer game of all time on US TV.
