The most-seen board got one second of goal time
In this six-goal draw, Qatar Airways had more sponsor screen time than any other brand (451 seconds, 10.0%) and 1 second inside a goal window. Six goals went to six different sets of boards, led by Adidas, Gazprom, Hyundai, McDonald's, Coca-Cola and Wanda.
Goal by goal
Six goals means six separate windows, so this is a better test than a one-goal clip of whether one brand keeps getting the goals. It didn't. A different brand led every window.
- Partners kept their share: FIFA's top tier had 61.6% of screen time and 66.1% of goal-moment seconds.
- Over-index: Hyundai (8.7% to 16.5%), Adidas (8.1% to 14.9%) and Coca-Cola (4.6% to 11.6%).
- Under-index: Qatar Airways, Visa (9.8% to 2.5%) and Mengniu, which had 253 seconds on screen and none during a goal.

| Apple Vision (on-device text reading) | 25 of 29 (0.86) | 24 of 28 (0.86) | 1 of 1 (1.00) | 144 of 150 (0.96) |
One match, six goals, and 121 goal-moment brand-seconds, so each brand's goal share rests on a handful of seconds. Sponsor tiers for 2018 are inferred from the 2022 listing, not taken from a 2018 FIFA list. Only one small board was in the 29 labelled, so small-board recall is not measured here. Brands in grey are ones we did not place in a sponsor tier.
