Google has released its top-trending searches of 2017 as part of their "Year in Search 2017."

Unsurprisingly, the list of the top-trending sporting events in searches from around the world has a decidedly international feel, featuring events like the Confederations Cup and the Tour de France. But the Super Bowl, World Series, and NBA Playoffs were also top searches, a testament to the US' impact on the global sports scene.

Below, find out more about the events that resonated the most with fans from around the world.

The 2016-17 Champions League culminated with a heavily hyped showdown between Real Madrid and Juventus, and while Juve controlled the game in the early going, they were no match for Cristiano Ronaldo. The 32-year-old legend scored a pair of goals, leading Real to its third Champions League title in four years. This season, just 16 teams remain alive.

9. NBA Playoffs

Stretched out over almost two months, it's no surprise that the NBA's postseason games were some of the most heavily searched sporting events of the year. The third edition of the Warriors and Cavaliers' fight for dominance in the Finals was the main event, but between the Spurs, Rockets, and Celtics, there was plenty of other action to get excited about.

8. FIFA Confederations Cup
