International club soccer in Ann Arbor confirmed
The beautiful game is finally coming to Ann Arbor.
Thursday afternoon, the International Champions Cup sent an e-mail promoting
“The Gods of Soccer” visiting Ann Arbor, among 11 other North American
cities.
The International Champions Cup pits some of the world’s elite clubs in an
elimination tournament. This year, the competition features Real Madrid,
Manchester United, Inter Milan, A.C. Milan, Olympiacos, Manchester City, AS
Roma and Liverpool FC.
Though the e-mail did not confirm the clubs or venue in Ann Arbor, it
coincides with a Jan 31 report that Manchester United and Real Madrid will
meet Aug. 2 at Michigan Stadium. Currently, the International Champions Cup
website lists a game between them at a venue and time “to be determined.”
MLive reported Jan. 31 that the Athletic Department “has engaged in
discussions about future events” at the Big House.
Real Madrid, which won the inaugural tournament last year, boasts 32 La Liga
titles. Manchester United has finished atop the English Premier League 13
times since its foundation in 1992.
The two clubs feature some of soccer’s elite players, including Cristiano
Ronaldo and Gareth Bale of Los Blancos, the Spanish team’s nickname, and
Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney of The Red Devils.
Readying the Big House for soccer — if that is where the match is held —
won’t come without its share of complications. Per FIFA, international
soccer’s governing body, a regulation pitch must be between 70 and 80 yards
wide for international matches, but a college football field is just 53
yards across. Tournament officials could either erect an elevated platform
to provide the necessary width or, because the game is essentially preseason
exhibition for both clubs, accept playing with non-regulation dimensions.
Additionally, Michigan Stadium uses an artificial surface, which has been
criticized as being sub-optimal for soccer. When the United States Men’s
National Team played Panama at CenturyLink Field in Seattle last June, the U
.S. Soccer Federation installed a temporary layer of grass over the
artificial turf. It is unclear whether the International Champions Cup will
do the same.
The nation’s largest American football stadium is no stranger to non-
football events. In 2010, it hosted Michigan and Michigan State in the Big
Chill at the Big House, setting the record for attendance at a hockey game.
On New Year’s Day this year, the 2014 Winter Classic at Michigan Stadium
drew more than 100,000 fans.
Even if hosted at the Big House, the Real Madrid-Manchester United matchup
won’t approach the attendance mark for soccer, which FIFA recognizes as 173
,850 at the 1950 World Cup Final in Rio De Janeiro. But it could top the
list of attendance at a soccer game in the United States, which stands at
101,799 for the final of the 1984 Summer Olympics between France and Brazil.
Michigan Stadium officially seats 109,901 for football games.
And after spending the summer watching the World Cup in Brazil, fútbol fans
can turn their eyes toward Ann Arbor and two of the world’s most storied
clubs. | J*****s

酒店大堂坐一天什么合影签名都有了
与其花100多刀买张球票不如30刀买张公开训练的票
然后找个酒吧吹着空调大屏幕上看看球 |
