150 million people should be watching the full match without interruptions

A global audience of 450 million viewers is expected to watch at least some part of the Champions League final between Manchester City and Inter on Saturday, UEFA estimates.

The live average public is expected to be about 150 million. The final game in Istanbul will be shown in more than 200 territories worldwide, UEFA said. It includes verified and estimated in-home TV viewers, fans streaming the game plus those watching in bars, restaurants and fan parks.

That 150 million figure is lower than the Champions League record 184 million average audience set by the 2014 final when Real Madrid beat city rival Atlético Madrid 4-1 after extra time.
