Portugal vs Norway at Estadio do Dragao tops Europe's attendance charts as Barcelona Women attract 40,000
Portugal's 2-1 victory over Norway drew the biggest crowd in Europe on October 4, with 48,832 supporters turning up at the Estadio do Dragao in Porto.
Kristoffer Ajer put Norway ahead with a dipping strike in the 36th minute, but Joao Cancelo levelled just two minutes later before Goncalo Ramos, scoring for a third successive Portugal game, struck the winner in the 79th minute. Portugal held on despite Francisco Conceicao's late red card, with the result keeping them perfect in Group A4 after four wins from four.
The Estadio do Dragao has a capacity of 50,033, so the 48,832 attendance left the ground 97.6% full, with the crowd more than 17,000 higher than the next-biggest men's international fixture of the day, coming in Eindhoven, where 31,387 watched the Netherlands beat Serbia 2-1 at the Philips Stadion.
Meanwhile, Barcelona Women's meeting with Real Madrid was the standout crowd outside the international fixtures, with 40,533 fans attending the 7-0 victory at Camp Nou.
That figure was enough to put the Liga F fixture second on the overall list, ahead of every international game apart from Portugal vs Norway. It also meant that more than 40,000 people turned up to watch a women's club match, something that stands out even more given the scoreline.
Greece vs Germany was next, with 27,599 fans attending the goalless draw at Toumba Stadium in Thessaloniki, while Wales vs Denmark attracted another sizeable crowd at Cardiff City Stadium, where 25,108 supporters watched the visitors claim a 1-0 victory.
Further down the list, Kosovo vs Austria drew 12,567 to the Fadil Vokrri Stadium in Pristina, with the two sides sharing the points after a 1-1 draw, and the smallest crowd of the seven matches came in Ta' Qali, where 5,894 watched Malta edge Andorra 1-0 at the National Stadium.
