World Cup ratings bonanza for Univision, Telemundo next?

• Univision continued its impressive World Cup ratings this week with 5.1M viewers tuning in for the coverage of the U.S.-Belgium knockout stage game.
• The network also scored another 1.8M viewers through its streaming service.
• Though the rating bonanza is well-timed with Univision a rumored target of CBS and Time Warner, there's a bittersweet element to the payday after the network lost the rights to the 2018 and 2022 World Cup to Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA) property Telemundo.
