Club World Cup 2025 - Who’s going?

[Alan Harper's Tash]

So the Al Ain game kicks off at 2am UK time??

Subject to thunderstorms, yeah. More likely to be 4:30am going off our preseason tours over there.

If you work on the basis that we're favourites in our group (watch us lose to Juventus this week now) then it should look like the following in the knock outs:
Last 16 - Monday 30th June in Orlando vs Red Bull Salzburg 9:00 pm EDT
Quarters - Friday July 4th in Orlando vs Inter 9:00 pm EDT
Semi - Tuesday July 8th in New Jersey vs Bayern 3:00 pm EDT
Final - Sunday July 13th in New Jersey vs Real 3:00 pm EDT

That looks a bit shit, would have thought it'd be a bit more S American rather than another CL run-in.

Well, it could be River Plate instead of Inter I suppose but I'd back Inter to win their group, similarly I cannot see Boca Juniors finishing above Bayern in their group

Think I'm going to do the first two games. Philly and Atlanta is a very enjoyable week.

If Wyad travel they will be the loudest.

Trump won't let 50,000 Muslims into the country for a soccer match.

Well said. Those City fans moaning about us competing in the World Cup which is being broadcast free to air to billions across the globe can just keep their TV switched off. Being a City supporter is not compulsory.

Only on free to view as no tv company has expressed any sort of interest in it.

Club are making bugger all money from it.

Philly is such a class city, plenty of decent boozers too

 

[Big Pussy Bonpensiero]

Prices of flights to Philly that week look scandalous

The broadcast deal is with DAZN for £780m. The minimum City will make is £50m and the winner will get around £100m. That doesn’t include any other sponsorships we would get for being World Champions.
