The USWNT make history again! CBS Sports announce record streaming figures for Gold Cup final victory over Brazil

The U.S. Women's National Team's (USWNT) success in the inaugural Concacaf Women's Gold Cup registered record viewership figures claimed CBS Sports. Captain Lindsey Horan etched her name in the annals of history by scoring the decisive goal in the first minute of stoppage time in the first half to propel her side to silverware.

CBS sports released a statement that read: "U.S. Women's National Team victory over Brazil in Concacaf W Gold Cup Final is the most-streamed women's soccer match ever on Paramount+ with 59% growth in households, 33% in streaming minutes and +66% in Average Minute Audience (AMA) from March 6 semifinal vs. Canada."

This victory holds significant importance for the USWNT, marking their first trophy since their disappointing campaign at the Women's World Cup last year. Notably, the team's composition featured a blend of experienced players and rising stars as veterans like Alex Morgan rubbed shoulders with emerging talents such as Korbin Albert.

In other sports, Iowa's comeback win over Nebraska in the Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament final recorded an average of 3.02 million viewers on CBS which made it the most-watched women’s basketball game on CBS since UConn-Tennessee on Jan. 10, 1999.

Looking ahead, the USWNT is set to participate in the prestigious SheBelieves Cup next month. This tournament will serve as a crucial stepping stone for the team as they navigate a new era under the leadership of incoming head coach Emma Hayes.
