This morning, L’Équipe report that the enthralling Coupe de France quarter-final between Nice and Marseille (4-1) drew a significant audience, thank to its accessibility on free-to-air channel France 3.
The cup tie drew 2.21 million viewers last night, which represents 10.7% of the potential audience. The match was the third most watched programme on French television last night, behind a film broadcast on M6 (4.76 million viewers) and Grey’s Anatomy broadcast on TF1, both also free-to-air channels.
The Round of 16 tie in the same competition between Nice and PSG, which went to penalties last Monday, attracted a marginally greater audience, with 2.26 million viewers on that night.
