The Champions League final was seen by 1.6 million viewers on Fox, an increase from 1.4 million for last year's game on ESPN.
Inter Milan's 2-0 victory over Bayern Munich on Saturday was the first U.S. over-the-air network telecast of a European Champions League final.
The game received a 1.0 rating on Fox, Nielsen Media Research said Thursday. It was viewed in 1.098 million homes, up from 1.066 million for Barcelona's 2-0 win over Manchester United last year.
Fox Sports chairman David Hill said last week he hoped for a rating of 2.0 to 2.5.
