Optus Sport pull in record ratings as audience numbers continue to grow

A dramatic final night of English Premier League action saw Optus Sport draw in its most ever viewers - eclipsing figures set during the 2018 World Cup.

In one of the most enthralling title races for some time, Manchester City were crowned champions after a 4-1 win over Brighton nullified Liverpool's 2-0 victory against Wolves.

The occasion proved a winner for Optus Sport with audience numbers for the broadcaster up 100 per cent and subscriptions up 50 per cent year-on-year.

"We’re thrilled with the strong growth of Optus Sport viewers this year and the fantastic feedback we’ve received from fans across the country,” Optus’ Head of TV and Content Colin Dimopoulos said.
