History! This Saturday, November 19, 2022 took place the Eleven All-Stars, a France-Spain football match between streamers/YouTubers at the Stade Jean Bouin, home of the mythical rugby club Stade Français. Announced several weeks ago and displaying colossal ambitions, the event entered the legend of the French Twitch by beating the recent record held until now by Squeezie and his GP Explorer, the F1 race which had gathered more than one million spectators online. Return on a madness carried out by the game twitch French !
A world class show and record!
It was unheard of on Twitch. Two days before the Football World Cup, it’s almost as if this event in Amine had nothing to envy. XXL TV production, Alexandre Ruiz on commentary, Laurent Paganelli at the edge of the field, Niska, Gazo, Koba LaD in the pre-show, Champions League atmosphere in the stands in a Jean Bouin packed with 20,000 people, all the means were put in place to spend an evening of madness.
And the success was there. In addition to a 2-0 victory, 1,158,000 viewers were at the peak audience, paying for the luxury of already dethroning Squeezie and its GPExplorer, which held the record for the largest number of viewers for a French event on Twitch with ~1,040,000 viewers. The popularity of Formula 1 may have grown madly, but football is once again showing that it is the unbeatable sport in France.
A return match already in the cards
Announced at the end of the match, the return match that the Spaniards really need will take place. We do not yet know the place or the date but the bar set by France is very very high, but we are sure that the Spanish leaders DjMariio and Ibai will be able to take up the challenge and offer a show to match, the latter holding a record on Twitch with more than 3.3 million (!) viewers for an event centered around boxing between content creators.
