Saturday's match between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF on the tenth matchday of the Liga BBVA was the most talked about sports event on Twitter in the USA, according to data collected by the agency Nielsen: The Clásico tops the table for the most tweets of the day from US fans.
The match broadcast in English by BeIn Sport came first, immediately followed by the same channel's Spanish broadcast. The activity generated by FC Barcelona-Real Madrid on the social network even outdid Boston Red Sox versus St. Louis Cardinals, a nationally broadcast World Series game.
The Clásico also had more tweets on Saturday than several college American football matches, demonstrating the huge impact and growing interest in the Liga BBVA in the USA.
