The FIFA 2026 World Cup continues to surprise: the tight match that made all of Argentina suffer against Cape Verde averaged 39.4 points on open television alone. That was 34.9 points on Telefe and 4.5 on Public Television/DSports. The mark is the highest for the state channel this year. The special broadcast mounted by the network run by Federico Levrino starting at 4:00 PM earned it the day with 16.3 points, figures not seen on the small screen in a long time.
One who had the chance to follow the adrenaline and suffering generated by the match from the inside was Susana Giménez, who returned to television in a special of ‘Por el mundo Mundial’ with Marley. This is the first public appearance of the phone diva on Telefe, after rumors that she would do a series of interviews that have yet to see the light. Likewise, she is the first guest host on the travel show since the surprising departure of Ian Lucas. The YouTuber had been accompanying Marley since the beginning of the World Cup event but stepped aside due to work commitments.
After 8:20 PM, ‘Por el mundo Mundial’ began from Miami with a floor of 13.9 points, left by the Paraguay vs. France match, leading the time slot. Susana Giménez and Marley went together to cheer on the Argentina vs. Cape Verde match. On the trip, they caught up: the diva said she had the locks changed at her Miami home and when she arrived she had forgotten, so she had to wake up a neighbor to help her. She also admitted they are preparing a movie about her life that will be seen soon. The show stayed between 8.5 and 11 points.
In the lead-up to the match, Marley interviewed Rodrigo De Paul’s parents, Dibu Martínez’s father, and the partners of several players: Valentina Cervantes, wife of Enzo Fernández; Agustina Gandolfo, wife of Lautaro Martínez; and Muriel López Benítez, partner of Lisandro Martínez. They also showed the Argentine fan rally in Miami before the match, and everything that happened after the national team’s victory.
At 9:30 PM, ‘La noche de ML’ began with 3.8 points left by eltrece’s movie. The lunch diva returned to her usual time slot, after changing last week’s airtime to avoid competing with the national team. At her table were Susana Roccasalvo, Lucas Morando, Diego Ramos, and Bertie Venegas Lynch. The host congratulated La Scaloneta on the victory, talked about all topics with her guests, and remembered Ernestina Pais, days after her tragic death. The eltrece show reached 4 points.
Meanwhile, on América, Luis Ventura presented a special episode of ‘Secretos Verdaderos’ dedicated to the life of Ernestina Pais. The program covered the story of a woman who marked an era with her direct, witty, and unfiltered style. The entertainment show remained third in the time slot with a peak of 1.7 points. While on ElNueve, Jey Mammón hosted Magui Bravi, Judith Gabbani, Alejandro Awada, and Germán Tripel, staying at 0.8, fourth in the slot.
After 9:50 PM, the ‘Gran Hermano’ debate returned to Telefe. ‘La noche de los ex’ hosted by Robertito Funes Ugarte started with a floor of 8.1 points. After Nenu López’s elimination, the young woman had the opportunity to review her days inside the house and tell her truth. Additionally, next Monday a new elimination will take place, after the formation of a new nomination list. The seven players on the chopping block are: Sebastián Cola, Matías Hanssen, Juan Carlos “JC” López, Luana Fernández, Alejandra Majluf, Mariela Prieto, and Leandro Nigro. The show stayed between 6.6 and 7.4 points, leading the time slot.

para mi esto es un asco 13,9 puntos? susana es una K de mierda y marley un payaso el mundial sin ideologia arrasa con 39,4 viva la patria y la tele sin zurdos
Para mí esto es un asco. 13 puntos de rating berreta mientras el pueblo labura y ellos hacen turismo con plata nuestra. El fútbol 39 puntos, claro, el opio del pueblo. Me parece que la guita de los medios públicos sigue yendo a los mismos amigos del poder. ¡Volve a la tele basura!
