The champions league final already destroys the Superbowl in terms of viewes. 400million+ for the champions league 2022 final. Yes there are crazy people out there who will sit through 6 hours of Ads, to watch more ads and a half time show, the sport never gets going, one touch a break and an ad, another touch let's wrap them up and go for another ad, oh look they got back on the field (since you call it a field and not a pitch) wait they touched the ball let's go for another ad while the players take another break from exchausting themselves for touching the ball for three seconds.

No disrespect to the Super Bowl, but I've never heard of anyone who watches the World Cup in order to see the commercials and the half-time show. The Super Bowl markets itself as this major spectacle in American sports, but there's a significant portion of viewers who are more entertained with the commercials and the half-time show rather than the game itself.
As a fan of both sports- American Football is huge in the USA. Association Football is huge in Europe, South America, Africa and the Middle East. No sport is close to our football.
this one was extremely obvious. What I would like to see however is a comparison of the superbowl and the champions league since they are more similar in a sense that they are both played by domestic teams rather than national teams.
Honestly not even cause the champions league final is a continent wide event so it’s double the audience aswell as people outside of Europe supporting those huge clubs. There is no good comparison for these types of things
I'm a huge fan of both sports, so there's no bias here, but I always find the comparison laughable. There's simply no competition when you consider the global viewership the WC brings in. The SB can also be tough for fans abroad due to the timezone differences, where it will be super late night in Europe and Monday morning in Asia. But as someone already mentioned, the 2/3 US population figure also has to account for the fact that not all of them are watching the sport itself, but SB is an annual American tradition for house parties where a lot of people just want to watch the commercials and the half-time show.
The thing is people abroad don't even know wth is superbowl. But like every country in the world knows what is world cup. Only usa play american footy. All other countries plays football. The real one. It's stupid and meaningless comparison
Matches of Argentina, Portugal, Spain, Brazil, France pull more audience than Ind vs Pak and I'm not even talking about a match between them, Argentina vs any random team in WC can pull more audience than Ind vs Pak. The comparison is absurd.
@@ananysharma24 The last ODI world cup of 2019 had a total viewership of 2.6 billion worldwide, making it second only to 2018 FIFA World Cup. So as I said Cricket is more comparable to Football than American football in terms of peak viewership.
How’s that even a question? World Cup is levels above the American hand-egg concert. Most of the world doesn’t even know it exists for god’s sake while the whole world stops for the World Cup.
The best stat that I once seen was that Celtic-Rangers derby can achieve bigger global viewership than Super Bowl. But to he honest Super Bowl is massive in the USA and only in the USA, it may be one of the most money generating events in sports but in terms of global viewership is just... unremarkable.
The OF is nowhere near the size of a Super Bowl in terms of viewing figures. It can probably go neck and neck with some playoff matches but not the Super Bowl itself.
@@Bendaak I don't claim that Old Firm Derby regularly beats Super Bowl viewership. I just say that there was at least one season where at least one Celtic-Rangers clash had bigger viewership that that years Super Bowl. Not sure when it was, but I once read that there was a Celtic-Rangers clash that broke 100 million views worldwide. Maybe that 2003 one? Or 2001? Can't find it now.
When the host cities for the 2026 World Cup were announced, the local television stations for 11 US cities made SURE to throw in that each stadium would be hosting what would be 4-6 Super Bowls. That wasn’t an accident. Yes, football has seen a serious rise in popularity amongst younger generations, but it wasn’t the younger folks they were talking to…it was the geezers, the restaurant and hotel companies and tourism agencies. Where I live, Texas, has two host cities in Dallas and Houston and AT&T Stadium is a possible site for one of the final four games because of the seating capacity and controlled climate, and we also have high Hispanic and Latin populations. Just the spectacle of the World Cup has people excited for 2026, but so does the cash flow.
That's where your logic fails Superbowl is only one game, world cup is like you said group matches not the same. Besides in football the average match viewership is around 17 million.
Neither does super bowl really. American corporations have held a strong grip on their sports since the 1930s but in actuality its the other way around: they USE sports to capitalize on advertisements. Now usually Americans don't really care about it but if I were an American athlete I'd be sad to know the whole system actually concieves product placements as the focal point of what I do rather than just a mean to capitalize on the market like elsewhere in the world.
@@BurnRoddy well a lot of nfl players earn a lot of money from endorsements - in fact some of them earn more from endorsements a year than they earn from their team salary.

But the way in which American sports were designed to advertise products was already efficient back in the 1930s, but it got to a point in the late 90s, in which there's swimming pools in NFL stadiums, while a gorgeous piece of history and architecture such as the Hubert Humphrey Metrodome was left to rot until it litterally collapsed on itself. Imagine the memmories of all of those people whitnessed games and athletes who played there going kaput in a flash like they were nothing. Like I said, Americans don't care because its their culture and there's nothing erong with that, but for the rest of the world, undermining athletes profession that much, would, in a way, be considered hubris, nasty even.
Honestly, American Football is the worst of the popular US sports. In my opinion, basketball and baseball are far better sports, and both have a much larger worldwide presence.

@@kx4998 Every Major US League does that. If you win the SuperBowl you're the Handegg "World Champ", if you win the NBA Finals you're "Basketball World Champ"
Comparing a tournament hosted every 4 years and involve teams from all over the world to a national tournament hosted every year is not fair. A better comparison should be the UEFA Championship League Final to Super Bowl. The UCL Final 2022 had around 400 millions viewership.
honestly, people outside the US don't realize that the better comparisons to make to their sporting events in the US are college sports. I love seeing them realize the scale, money, and passion that exists in amateur sports in the US lol.
If you are doing a country-based sporting event vs an international sporting event, choose a Chinese or Indian one where it could be somewhat comparable based on their population. Super Bowl vs Champions Leage final vs Olympics 100m final would be more interesting st
The most popular sporting event in one country v the most popular sporting event in the world. World Cup is even bigger than the Olympics in my opinion.
What debate lmao 😂unless people are trolling. I don't think anyone, whether an American football fan or not, SERIOUSLY thinks the Superbowl is bigger than the world cup. I mean, one event is weeks long with players from all over the world playing the most accessible and easy-to-understand sport, while the other is an event that takes place on one day between two domestic teams (sometimes, but rarely, with players from other countries), playing a sport that is not as easily accessible or easy to understand for most people. Like many others have said, it's apples and oranges, and comparing them seems silly, but oh well. I watch both sports and think people on both sides sound so stupid when they try to one up or compare.... I will say though, the fact that we even compare a global sport with a domestic sport so much is a testament to the NFL's marketing hahahah
I wasn't too interested in football back in 2018, so I didn't really know what the hype was about the world cup. But now, I'm really excited for my first-ever world cup experience. Who you guys betting to win? I'm Argentina or Brazil.
Nop. Remember that Africans, Asians and South Americans also watch the UCL final. But how many people ouside USA/Canada watch the super bowl??? Are you Zimbabwean by the way???
@@animalxls2315 UEFA Champions league final is still bigger than the Superbowl however it's unfair to compare an international tournament like the World Cup to a domestic league. The World Cup is like the Olympics. Yes, I'm a livid NFL fan from Zimbabwe
As an American, I never knew how big the World Cup was, I thought it was something a few people watched I didn't know how many people actually watched it. I don't know anyone that watches Soccer, I guess this goes to show how oblivious Americans are to the world outside of their own country.
So disrespectful to even think about that comparison, Superbowl is mainly for US, not even comparable to the Champions League, which is way smaller than the World freaking Cup
My country doesn't even qualify to play in the World Cup, and often times match schedules are happening at 2 am and people in my country still watch it.
@@dixoncider8372 no he is. If you read his comment he says they only watch it for the half time show and ads suggesting everyone who watches the Super Bowl watches for that sole reason.
City vs liverpool was the most watched football game last season and I think that fixture is much bigger than superbowl. A normal pl game will get more global views if you remove half time show from superbowl
No basis of comparison really, one is an entertainment event, the other is a sporting event. Super Bowl is 20% about the "football" game, 10% about the half time commercials and 70% about the half time show, it's an ENTERTAINMENT event. Whilst the World Cup on the other hand is a sporting event.
I think the Shows they put up during their "matches" has more viewership. Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J Blige, Hendrick Lamar and Eminem. It's literally the only reason some of us watched that channel for longer than 15 minutes. The only American football player I know is Brady something.(I'm not going to google his name.)
I watch both sports, but I'm the only person I know here in the US that watches international ⚽(yes, I'm serious). If I asked a friend to name a top football/soccer player, they'd probably be similar to you with Brady, and only be able to name somebody like Ronaldo, and even then they wouldn't know where he plays or where he's from 😂 I feel like I get the best of both worlds as a fan of both sports, but I feel bad for those on both sides that miss out on the best of each side. There are things in American football I miss sorely when I just watch football/soccer, and vice versa.
I’d find a UCL vs Super Bowl comparison more interesting. Annual single game finals that decide the best team in the world of their respective sports at the team. Both the events the seasons lead up to. That’d be more apt
The simple fact of asking that question is blasphemy... Ok the Superbowl is extremely popular but it's mainly a US thing. No matter how powerful it is over there: the money splashed to broadcast it , the commercials, medias hyping it up... It all revolves around the US while the WC is really a worldwide event.
I think it's kinda ridiculous to compare Super Bowl to World Cup, Super Bowl is a Championship match in NFL or a grand finale of the season while the World Cup is a huge tournament for every country.BOTH OF THEM ARE HUGE. For Association Football's perspective, the Super Bowl is like the average of the FA Cup Final or the UEFA Champions League Final. And I think it's pretty stupid to compare it to World Cup, Super Bowl happens at the first quarter every year right after their season and playoffs ends.
the world cup, even as an american, is clearly much bigger globally than the superbowl. i will say for people who dont live in america, that the superbowl is unofficially a national holiday here. it is treated as the biggest sporting and pop cultural event of the entire year. the halftime show is watched by hundreds of millions around the world, and even the president addresses the country and interviews with the network broadcasting the super bowl before the game. so globally the world cup is bigger, but the superbowl is probably bigger in america that the world cup is in any individual country (unless you are playing in the final)
That's more a commentary on America having an enormous population though. I'd think, percentage-wise, that the world cup is much bigger in South American nations than the Super Bowl is in the US, simply because of the smaller populations. Comparing the popularity of a sport played in one country with 350 million people to a sport played by many people across many smaller countries simply on numbers will never work, because the context of the comparison is so off. Similarly, the viewership of Cricket matches is incredibly skewed because of the sport's popularity in India, so comparing any of the sports purely on numbers gets nowhere.
What a dumb question? 300 million population vs what 8 billion now? Out of the 300 million in the US, not everyone watches the NFL. So, even in that case let's say 200 million vs 4 billion. World Cup is massively bigger. No brainer.
I don’t even know why people compare and argue between sport events. Just let people enjoy the sports they enjoy, instead of making comparisons and debates about it.
It can also be said that in the US (solely) World Cup viewership is around 5 million, compared to the 200 million in the US (solely) for Super Bowl viewers. The US has quite a ways to go in viewership of arguably the Great Game on Earth.
The term football once applied to a variety of sports all characterised by the fact that they were played on foot (as opposed to horseback). This included rugby football (the father of handegg) and association football.
After 20 seconds I stopped. How bold to assume the superbowl can feel like the centre of the sporting universe? I didnt even heard there is superbowl one day before it happened. Also the worlds most famours artists? Dude, I never heard the name of the people singing there at the beginning. Damn, Americans really believe they are important.
I saw a video where the guy claims NFL is the biggest sport because the attendances at games are bigger. Like they only have 32 teams that play 16 games a year in a country of 350 million How many football teams in Europe that play at least 40 games ?? Yanks not too good at math
Thumbs up for the World Cup that’s is I am African-American actually soccer I’m giving the World Cup a good job from defeating the Super Bowl eventually 👍🏾
As an American football fan I can’t even believe this is a discussion we’re having lol. The World Cup is arguably the biggest sporting event in the world, other than MAYBE the olympics
People saying this isnt a relevant video are obviously unaware of how much larger the Super Bowl is than anything football (soccer) related is in the US. This video seems obvious to most of the world, but it's pretty interesting and relevant context for people in the US who can tend to see the Super Bowl as the "greatest show on Earth" and underestimate the scale of global football
This video and the comments remind me of the Mad Men meme: Michael Ginsberg (World): I feel sorry for you Don Draper (USA): I don't think about you at all.
The World Cup can only be compared to the Olympic Games. It is the central focus of the sporting world in every way shape or form.

Incoming Americans
@@BigDeyum Heyo!! Yeah, World Cup. We're not that stupid. We saw it first-hand in 1994, and we're co-hosting in 2026. My honest question though is, why is this comparison being made in the first place?
@@eksortso Because unfortunately the stigma is Americans think the world revolves around them (British too sometimes albeit not as much as us)
@@godalbinothe It pretty much does revolve around the US. The country's politics, entertainments, pop culture, economic, music and others dominate the world in many aspects.
@@minilik6 it doesnt
I almost watched this.. I think a better comparison would be Champions League and Super Bowl. Tifo doesn't miss often but his one had an obvious answer. Spoiler - World Cup.
Because the winners of the Super Bowl are supposedly "world champions" even though all the teams are from the US.
@@chrisl9934 same with the NBA, they’re considered World Champions even though the only team the play outside the US is 1 team in Canada
I'm guessing they compared the Super Bowl to the World Cup because both are the biggest events in their sports.
Cute comparison. I always wondered which is bigger, an event involving countries from all over the world or one that involves teams from one country...
I don't think the Super Bowl even compares to the Champions League
As a percent of population Super Bowls are more; raw numbers, UCL final wins obviously, because it's dealing with double the number of people. I think the UCL final is growing faster, though, as they have kind of started making the event feel more "Super Bowl-y"
@@paulfriedrich8326 yeah I dislike how much more advertising they're trying to cram in the game, all these opening shows even the WC is gonna have it, and I bet secretly they're in the future they will make half time shows a thing and maybe even make the game shorter than 90 minutes
The El clássico probably have more people watching it than the super ball lmao
unless 10 millions poeples watching superbowl, all of the other just here for the show not the game
@@rroy1985 The advertising is there because the fans are there... Plain and simple, a company can achieve overnight success with a successful ad and are willing to go bankrupt to achieve it.. There is a reason why Paul claimed the UCL is becoming more Super Bowl-y because its more revenue for the sport..
Even the FA Cup Final in England gets more viewers worldwide than the Super Bowl.
Didn’t the FA cup final only get 6 million viewers?
I think you’re thinking of the champions league
Bro a total of 12 people watched the last FA cup lmao
@@davidlizama223 Still more glorious.
😂😂we’ll said thanks

it wasn't posed to be answered. it was a rhetorical question talk about a topic

why is this even a question
Everyone outside the US knows, it's the World Cup 🙌

People in the Us know lol too
@@IsaacIsDead1 you never know, Americans can lack certain brain functions sometimes, I’m sure many of them actually think their sports are on the same level as football or the Olympics in terms of popularity
American here, most of us know that too lol
American, I love watching both (and the CL).
I’ve never understood the fake rivalry between football / American football. You wouldn’t do this to any other country’s pastime lol.
Let’s not forget to mention, people tune in to the Super Bowl to watch commercials and a half time show 😅😂 imagine your whole sport finals major attraction is commercials and a mini concert.
Precisely, take away those concert and commercials and nobody will watch the so called super bowl
100% bro
Honestly I didn’t know what super bowl was, i was just scrolling through some cool ads and the name super bowl popped up a lot so I looked it up.
dude lol
@@yashwantj01wow do u want a trophy too
Imagine being an athlete participating in a final where more interest is garnered at half time for ads and artists then the actual event.
The world cup is obviously bigger, but I don't think any American who enjoys the super bowl gives a damn about the world cup being bigger. Americans enjoy the super bowl and that's enough in itself. I'm into (Real) football, but I also enjoy the super bowl, and though it's smaller compared to the world cup doesn't make watching it any less enjoyable. These sports aren't meant to be compared they are meant to be enjoyed.⚽🏈
It’s just a video calm down…a pointless video as the answer is obvious but it’s just for entertainment, relax
Americans will care when they host the wc. They'll understand how big it is then
@@mtk3755 I’m Liberian American we have more people playing football⚽️ out here than any other sports. immigrants from every parts of the world live in USA 95% of Hispanic African white play football⚽️ only black Americans mainly play American football and American football don’t require nothing like skills you can start playing it at 16 and be good at it but not Football⚽️
Yeah more power to you personally I'm just not into American football I do watch for the halftime show but I genuinely love football which is why I love WC
Man, I stopped watching the nfl for the World Cup as it was going on. Damn I didn’t even know how my own team was doing 😂
you guys always make informative videos worth watching, this one aint it
Yeah, "what's biggest, the most important event in one country's sport season or the biggest international event in the World?"
How is that even fair for the Superbowl?
@@NIDELLANEUM I thought it might be because Americans tend to market their sport events as world events and not just local ones. Like when they call Tom Brady the greatest athlete in the world. It makes no sense to the rest of us
Lmao great comment
@@khulanimakhathini9091 oh yeah I never understood that. Why couldn't they have an actual global event where their "clubs" compete?
For instance, there is now the Euroleague in basketball which is second only to the NBA. Couldn't they just organise an event where the NBA and Euroleague champions compete?
@@NIDELLANEUM Then they’d risk losing and ruining their own sham marketing. Same reason we expect the super league to be a closed off shop for everyone else
You should have compared the super bowl to the UCL final
Still would have been a thrashing
UCL final is watched by about half a billion people every year.
UCL is a continent wide event while Super Bowl is a country wide still doesn’t compare
@@kenon6111 well only teams from 2 nations play finals of UCL so why not? Half of European nations aren't even represented in UCL superbowl finals are are small in views cuz no one likes it
In my 33 years I haven't watched the Superb Owl once whereas this year I'll be watching my 7th World Cup
Fan of What We Do in the Shadows?
I’d rather watch the Superb Owl than the Super Bowl
😅😅😅😄😄😂😂
Cool story? lol
I grew up in US I’m 56 yo I never watched football or superball but I never miss the WC and champions league
No disrespect to the Super Bowl, but I've never heard of anyone who watches the World Cup in order to see the commercials and the half-time show. The Super Bowl markets itself as this major spectacle in American sports, but there's a significant portion of viewers who are more entertained with the commercials and the half-time show rather than the game itself.
In many years, it's been more like a Stupor Bowl.
Fan of both sports, the World Cup is clear
Even champions league is bigger than superbowl...
Way bigger in fact
The classic Madrid Barcelona of the LaLiga has more audience than the Superbowl
As a fan of both sports- American Football is huge in the USA. Association Football is huge in Europe, South America, Africa and the Middle East. No sport is close to our football.
this one was extremely obvious. What I would like to see however is a comparison of the superbowl and the champions league since they are more similar in a sense that they are both played by domestic teams rather than national teams.
Honestly not even cause the champions league final is a continent wide event so it’s double the audience aswell as people outside of Europe supporting those huge clubs. There is no good comparison for these types of things
@@kenon6111 EPL could do the comparison tho, it's the most popular of the big 6 leagues in Europe.
Football is bigger than Grid Iron Football due to it being an international sport.
I'm a huge fan of both sports, so there's no bias here, but I always find the comparison laughable. There's simply no competition when you consider the global viewership the WC brings in. The SB can also be tough for fans abroad due to the timezone differences, where it will be super late night in Europe and Monday morning in Asia. But as someone already mentioned, the 2/3 US population figure also has to account for the fact that not all of them are watching the sport itself, but SB is an annual American tradition for house parties where a lot of people just want to watch the commercials and the half-time show.
The thing is people abroad don't even know wth is superbowl. But like every country in the world knows what is world cup. Only usa play american footy. All other countries plays football. The real one. It's stupid and meaningless comparison
I don't even watch the game , just wait for the half time show to start and after it , I move on
i was born in america but i still prefer real football because my parents are european
Watching a game just for an ad it's like going to a party without eating, drinking nor talking with anybody
Why did you bother showing up?
Americans need to stop comparing American football with football. Two completely different sports.
An India v Pakistan Cricket World cup game is more comparable to the FIFA World Cup final than any Superbowl ever.
Cricket is just the most dead thing ever. How it's so wildy popular with you guys I will never understand.
Matches of Argentina, Portugal, Spain, Brazil, France pull more audience than Ind vs Pak and I'm not even talking about a match between them, Argentina vs any random team in WC can pull more audience than Ind vs Pak. The comparison is absurd.
@@bricktop. because we're good at it. Football is pretty famous too here mostly because of EPL.
@@ananysharma24 the original commenter means that its better than comparing to American handegg game
@@ananysharma24 The last ODI world cup of 2019 had a total viewership of 2.6 billion worldwide, making it second only to 2018 FIFA World Cup. So as I said Cricket is more comparable to Football than American football in terms of peak viewership.
How’s that even a question?
World Cup is levels above the American hand-egg concert.
Most of the world doesn’t even know it exists for god’s sake while the whole world stops for the World Cup.
The best stat that I once seen was that Celtic-Rangers derby can achieve bigger global viewership than Super Bowl. But to he honest Super Bowl is massive in the USA and only in the USA, it may be one of the most money generating events in sports but in terms of global viewership is just... unremarkable.
The OF is nowhere near the size of a Super Bowl in terms of viewing figures. It can probably go neck and neck with some playoff matches but not the Super Bowl itself.
@@Bendaak I don't claim that Old Firm Derby regularly beats Super Bowl viewership. I just say that there was at least one season where at least one Celtic-Rangers clash had bigger viewership that that years Super Bowl. Not sure when it was, but I once read that there was a Celtic-Rangers clash that broke 100 million views worldwide. Maybe that 2003 one? Or 2001? Can't find it now.
Underground sports like Camanachd from Scotland have more international appeal. Americans are fucken delusional.
The classic Madrid Barcelona of La Liga has more audience than the Superbowl
When the host cities for the 2026 World Cup were announced, the local television stations for 11 US cities made SURE to throw in that each stadium would be hosting what would be 4-6 Super Bowls. That wasn’t an accident. Yes, football has seen a serious rise in popularity amongst younger generations, but it wasn’t the younger folks they were talking to…it was the geezers, the restaurant and hotel companies and tourism agencies. Where I live, Texas, has two host cities in Dallas and Houston and AT&T Stadium is a possible site for one of the final four games because of the seating capacity and controlled climate, and we also have high Hispanic and Latin populations. Just the spectacle of the World Cup has people excited for 2026, but so does the cash flow.
The Super Bowl shouldn’t be compared to the FA cup final, let alone the most prestigious sporting event in human history.
How is this even a legitimate comparison. World Cup is obviously miles ahead. Better compare the Super Bowl with annual UCL Final or something!
the superbowl is equal to a world cup group match 🤣🤣😂
a world cup qualification match between England and San Marino🤣🤣🤣
@@animalxls2315 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's where your logic fails Superbowl is only one game, world cup is like you said group matches not the same. Besides in football the average match viewership is around 17 million.
World cup doesn't need flashy halftime shows for success
Neither does super bowl really. American corporations have held a strong grip on their sports since the 1930s but in actuality its the other way around: they USE sports to capitalize on advertisements.
Now usually Americans don't really care about it but if I were an American athlete I'd be sad to know the whole system actually concieves product placements as the focal point of what I do rather than just a mean to capitalize on the market like elsewhere in the world.
@@BurnRoddy well a lot of nfl players earn a lot of money from endorsements - in fact some of them earn more from endorsements a year than they earn from their team salary.
Neither does the super bowl lol
@@Akniy I know that mate, and I ain't complaining as there's nothing wrong with that.
I believe Sir Stanley Mattews endorded tea all the way back in the 1930s and Arsenio Erico did it as well, Heck Ricardo Zamora had his own action figure, and lets not forget about Pele whom is a one man product endorsment machine.
But the way in which American sports were designed to advertise products was already efficient back in the 1930s, but it got to a point in the late 90s, in which there's swimming pools in NFL stadiums, while a gorgeous piece of history and architecture such as the Hubert Humphrey Metrodome was left to rot until it litterally collapsed on itself.
Imagine the memmories of all of those people whitnessed games and athletes who played there going kaput in a flash like they were nothing.
Like I said, Americans don't care because its their culture and there's nothing erong with that, but for the rest of the world, undermining athletes profession that much, would, in a way, be considered hubris, nasty even.
It's like asking: which one is a bigger number: 4 billion or 100 million? 😂
⚽ > 🏈
Am I the only person watching who has never watched a single game of American Football. Like if there are others like me.
Honestly, American Football is the worst of the popular US sports. In my opinion, basketball and baseball are far better sports, and both have a much larger worldwide presence.
@@HaileyTheThird 100% agree. I never understood the appeal of American football, basketball is a far superior sport

Why is this even a debate lmao, no amount of commercials would get superbowl on world cup level.
World Cup for sure.
thanks sherlock
I've watched every World cup final since 1998 and my nation has never even reached the final.
Mine even never qualified for one ! 😂
Worldcup incomparable 👌⚽️
I bet the UCL final/el clasico is more popular than whatever that tournament is called😂😂
My theory, there would probably couple percent of people know SuperBowl solely from the influence of manga/anime Eyeshield 21 itself
Football > throw-ball
All day any day 💯
No way. I got to have my violence.
The only rival event to the World Cup is the Olympics.
The Super Bowl doesn’t even get the numbers of the UCL Final, let alone the World Cup Final.
The UCL Final 2021 between Chelsea and Manchester City had north of 700M viewers alone, there is no comparison
Welcome to a question nobody outside of the US ever thought about asking.
From their names, it becomes clear to you the difference and the most comprehensive 🌍🏆
Major league baseball calls theirs the world series even though the only teams they have are from the US and Canada.
@@kx4998 Every Major US League does that. If you win the SuperBowl you're the Handegg "World Champ", if you win the NBA Finals you're "Basketball World Champ"
Comparing a tournament hosted every 4 years and involve teams from all over the world to a national tournament hosted every year is not fair. A better comparison should be the UEFA Championship League Final to Super Bowl. The UCL Final 2022 had around 400 millions viewership.
It’ll be more fair to compare the Super Bowl vs the Champions League since both are yearly competitions
The World Cup final is the biggest sporting event on the planet hands down. Clearly that's the winner.
People always compare the World Cup to the Super Bowl, but it's really more like March Madness.
yes, europa league vs march madness
honestly, people outside the US don't realize that the better comparisons to make to their sporting events in the US are college sports. I love seeing them realize the scale, money, and passion that exists in amateur sports in the US lol.
If you are doing a country-based sporting event vs an international sporting event, choose a Chinese or Indian one where it could be somewhat comparable based on their population. Super Bowl vs Champions Leage final vs Olympics 100m final would be more interesting st
Even El Classico with Ronaldo and Messi was bigger than Superbowl
1 World Cup Final is like 20 Super Bowls.
Facts
Way more than that
World Cup is International while Super Bowl is only well known in the US, World Cup or Football is way better than Handegg
The most popular sporting event in one country v the most popular sporting event in the world.
World Cup is even bigger than the Olympics in my opinion.
A lot of Twitter debates can now be ended with a link to this video. Thank you Tifo 🙏🏾😂
What debate lmao 😂unless people are trolling. I don't think anyone, whether an American football fan or not, SERIOUSLY thinks the Superbowl is bigger than the world cup. I mean, one event is weeks long with players from all over the world playing the most accessible and easy-to-understand sport, while the other is an event that takes place on one day between two domestic teams (sometimes, but rarely, with players from other countries), playing a sport that is not as easily accessible or easy to understand for most people.
Like many others have said, it's apples and oranges, and comparing them seems silly, but oh well. I watch both sports and think people on both sides sound so stupid when they try to one up or compare.... I will say though, the fact that we even compare a global sport with a domestic sport so much is a testament to the NFL's marketing hahahah
yep, people of USA is kinda different breed of human race, they're like autistic nation, losing touch with hundred's of other nations
LOL
A global sport vs a domestic one.
I wasn't too interested in football back in 2018, so I didn't really know what the hype was about the world cup. But now, I'm really excited for my first-ever world cup experience. Who you guys betting to win? I'm Argentina or Brazil.
argentina def i think they good solid team but france is also a good team this final
Bro predicted the World Cup
A fairer comparison would be between the Super Bowl and UEFA Champions League Final
Nop. Remember that Africans, Asians and South Americans also watch the UCL final. But how many people ouside USA/Canada watch the super bowl??? Are you Zimbabwean by the way???
@@animalxls2315 UEFA Champions league final is still bigger than the Superbowl however it's unfair to compare an international tournament like the World Cup to a domestic league. The World Cup is like the Olympics. Yes, I'm a livid NFL fan from Zimbabwe
Is this a serious question??
world cup duh, but don’t underestimate super bowl cause it’s an american sport lmao
Comparing the two is overestimating the super bowl pal
@@chd72 he didnt say to compare them tho

@@america1832 Hahahah
As an American, I never knew how big the World Cup was, I thought it was something a few people watched I didn't know how many people actually watched it. I don't know anyone that watches Soccer, I guess this goes to show how oblivious Americans are to the world outside of their own country.
So disrespectful to even think about that comparison, Superbowl is mainly for US, not even comparable to the Champions League, which is way smaller than the World freaking Cup
YOO CHELSEA FANNN💙
My country doesn't even qualify to play in the World Cup, and often times match schedules are happening at 2 am and people in my country still watch it.
If messi and ronaldo just did a live meet and greet together with their fans it will garner more audience than a superbowl game 🤣😅
their followers on Instagram have more than 50+ Superbowl audience combined lol

They watch the superbowl for ads and halftime show rather than the sport
@@Diabolos1007 no they dont lol
@@caleb4369 he is wrong but still a load of people only watch for the ads
@@jamestyler12JT so he isn't wrong?
@@dixoncider8372 no he is. If you read his comment he says they only watch it for the half time show and ads suggesting everyone who watches the Super Bowl watches for that sole reason.

The FIFA World cup final, is absolutely massive compared to the Superbowl. Really isn't even close.
World Cup. The end.
City vs liverpool was the most watched football game last season and I think that fixture is much bigger than superbowl. A normal pl game will get more global views if you remove half time show from superbowl
even a normal premier league match between Manchester United and Arsenal or liverpool can have a higher audience than superbowl
thats just not true ☠️
No basis of comparison really, one is an entertainment event, the other is a sporting event. Super Bowl is 20% about the "football" game, 10% about the half time commercials and 70% about the half time show, it's an ENTERTAINMENT event. Whilst the World Cup on the other hand is a sporting event.
I think the Shows they put up during their "matches" has more viewership. Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J Blige, Hendrick Lamar and Eminem. It's literally the only reason some of us watched that channel for longer than 15 minutes.
The only American football player I know is Brady something.(I'm not going to google his name.)
I watch both sports, but I'm the only person I know here in the US that watches international ⚽(yes, I'm serious). If I asked a friend to name a top football/soccer player, they'd probably be similar to you with Brady, and only be able to name somebody like Ronaldo, and even then they wouldn't know where he plays or where he's from 😂
I feel like I get the best of both worlds as a fan of both sports, but I feel bad for those on both sides that miss out on the best of each side. There are things in American football I miss sorely when I just watch football/soccer, and vice versa.
the REAL football is far superior than a sport where 22 man wearing helmets and tight pants laying on each other wondering if it's a touchdown or not
I just like whoever is being violent usually NFL wins.
If I am not mistaken, the Champions League final also beats the Super Bowl
I’d find a UCL vs Super Bowl comparison more interesting. Annual single game finals that decide the best team in the world of their respective sports at the team. Both the events the seasons lead up to. That’d be more apt
The simple fact of asking that question is blasphemy...
Ok the Superbowl is extremely popular but it's mainly a US thing.
No matter how powerful it is over there: the money splashed to broadcast it , the commercials, medias hyping it up...
It all revolves around the US while the WC is really a worldwide event.
I think it's kinda ridiculous to compare Super Bowl to World Cup, Super Bowl is a Championship match in NFL or a grand finale of the season while the World Cup is a huge tournament for every country.BOTH OF THEM ARE HUGE.
For Association Football's perspective, the Super Bowl is like the average of the FA Cup Final or the UEFA Champions League Final. And I think it's pretty stupid to compare it to World Cup, Super Bowl happens at the first quarter every year right after their season and playoffs ends.
Football 99,2 %
Super bowl 0,8 %
So litteraly nobody outside of the us even know whos Brady at all💀🤣
When they think of America they think of Christian Pulisic 🤦.
I heard about him. Never seen him play.
the world cup, even as an american, is clearly much bigger globally than the superbowl.
i will say for people who dont live in america, that the superbowl is unofficially a national holiday here. it is treated as the biggest sporting and pop cultural event of the entire year. the halftime show is watched by hundreds of millions around the world, and even the president addresses the country and interviews with the network broadcasting the super bowl before the game. so globally the world cup is bigger, but the superbowl is probably bigger in america that the world cup is in any individual country (unless you are playing in the final)
That's more a commentary on America having an enormous population though. I'd think, percentage-wise, that the world cup is much bigger in South American nations than the Super Bowl is in the US, simply because of the smaller populations. Comparing the popularity of a sport played in one country with 350 million people to a sport played by many people across many smaller countries simply on numbers will never work, because the context of the comparison is so off.
Similarly, the viewership of Cricket matches is incredibly skewed because of the sport's popularity in India, so comparing any of the sports purely on numbers gets nowhere.
@@HaileyTheThird spot on
What a dumb question? 300 million population vs what 8 billion now?
Out of the 300 million in the US, not everyone watches the NFL. So, even in that case let's say 200 million vs 4 billion. World Cup is massively bigger. No brainer.
I don’t even know why people compare and argue between sport events.
Just let people enjoy the sports they enjoy, instead of making comparisons and debates about it.
I say this exactly
It can also be said that in the US (solely) World Cup viewership is around 5 million, compared to the 200 million in the US (solely) for Super Bowl viewers. The US has quite a ways to go in viewership of arguably the Great Game on Earth.
Not this year, it is around 9 million.
World cup should be compared to big competitions too like the olympics
Still don’t understand why Americans call their sport “Football”, there’s hardly any Foot involved..
The term football once applied to a variety of sports all characterised by the fact that they were played on foot (as opposed to horseback). This included rugby football (the father of handegg) and association football.
After 20 seconds I stopped.
How bold to assume the superbowl can feel like the centre of the sporting universe? I didnt even heard there is superbowl one day before it happened.
Also the worlds most famours artists? Dude, I never heard the name of the people singing there at the beginning.
Damn, Americans really believe they are important.
I saw a video where the guy claims NFL is the biggest sport because the attendances at games are bigger.
Like they only have 32 teams that play 16 games a year in a country of 350 million
How many football teams in Europe that play at least 40 games ??
Yanks not too good at math
The title made me laugh, the only reason I clicked on this video at all was to see how funny the comments would be.
Thumbs up for the World Cup that’s is I am African-American actually soccer I’m giving the World Cup a good job from defeating the Super Bowl eventually 👍🏾
As an American football fan I can’t even believe this is a discussion we’re having lol. The World Cup is arguably the biggest sporting event in the world, other than MAYBE the olympics
I think Champions league is enough to beat Super Bowl, I could be wrong though
You’re very right
So many people are considering the UCL when it is still way above lmao. The Superbowl should be compared to the Europa League instead.
@@distantant or maybe even the English fa cup final
People saying this isnt a relevant video are obviously unaware of how much larger the Super Bowl is than anything football (soccer) related is in the US. This video seems obvious to most of the world, but it's pretty interesting and relevant context for people in the US who can tend to see the Super Bowl as the "greatest show on Earth" and underestimate the scale of global football
Thank you for pointing out what the butt-hurt "how can you even compare this"-crowd missed :)
This video and the comments remind me of the Mad Men meme:
Michael Ginsberg (World): I feel sorry for you
Don Draper (USA): I don't think about you at all.
