Attendance? Smashed it.
Over 657,000 fans showed up — 29 out of 31 matches sold out.
For the first time ever, average attendance passed 20,000 per match.

 

Goals? More than ever.
A record 104 goals were scored.
Spain’s 6–2 win over Belgium tied the all-time high for most goals in a single game.

 

TV viewership? Massive.
The final drew a combined peak of 16.2 million in the UK — the most-watched moment of the year.
BBC One alone had 11.6 million viewers — that’s nearly 60% of everyone watching TV.
Meanwhile? Just 1.1 million tuned into the Club World Cup final at the same time.

 

Revenue? Record-breaking.
€128 million generated — ten times more than in 2017.
Most of it came from media rights.

 

Team stats? Wild.
England had 11 different players score — a tournament record.
Spain had 10. Depth everywhere.

 

And history was made — again.
Michelle Agyemang became the first Black woman to win an individual award at a Women’s Euros — Young Player of the Tournament.

Wales made their debut — and scored their first ever major tournament goal thanks to Jess Fishlock.

 

Drama? Absolutely.
Five matches went to extra time — including both semi-finals. Another first.

 

And globally? Over 500 million watched.
More than 45 million tuned in for the final alone.

EURO 2025 wasn’t just big —
It changed the game."
