New York, NY (PRWEB) March 13, 2014 -- Cheap Concert Tickets announces that Liverpool FC and Manchester FC will face each other at Yankee Stadium in late July. This match is in association with the 2014 Guinness International Champions Cup.
For fans of international soccer, 2014 is shaping up to be a great year for American fans. There are numerous events being held before and after the World Cup in Brazil including the Road to Brazil and the 2014 Guinness International Champions Cup. The latter is a tournament that will feature eight of the best club teams from across the ocean including Manchester United, AC Milan, the defending champion Real Madrid, Manchester City and Liverpool FC. In the case of Liverpool FC and Manchester City, these teams will compete in Group B of the round robin tournament and will play at Yankee Stadium in New York City on July 30.
One of the best teams to ever compete in the English Premier League is Liverpool FC. The team was founded in 1892 and has one of the richest histories in the sport. Of all the teams based in England, they have the most European titles including five European Cups, three UEFA Cups and three UEFA Super Cups. Over the course of their existence, they have also won eight League Cups, seven FA Cups and 18 League titles. They will be led in this game by their captain Steven Gerrard and vice-captain Daniel Agger.
Manchester City is another team that is a part of the English Premier League and was founded originally in 1880. The team had their best run in the Premier League during the 1960s and 1970s, but has found some success again in recent years. The team qualified for the 2011 UEFA Champions League and also claimed the FA Cup crown. The following year, they picked up their first Premier League title in more than 40 years and will be led in this showdown at Yankee Stadium by their captain Vincent Kompany, Edin Džeko, Micah Richards and Javi Garcia.
The 2014 Guinness International Champions Cup has been around since 2009 when it was known as the World Football Challenge. Since its inception, the most successful team has been Real Madrid who has won multiple titles including the 2013 event. In recent years, the event has been criticized for its uneven play, but with eight of the best teams in the world, won’t have that problem when it runs this year from July 24 through Aug. 4. Making up Group A will be Manchester United, Real Madrid, F.C. Inter and AS Roma, while Group B will feature AC Milan, Olympiacos and the two teams competing at Yankee Stadium.
The new Yankee Stadium was opened in 2009 and was one of the most expensive stadiums to be built for any professional sports team in the United States. The home of Major League Baseball’s New York Yankees doesn’t have the same history as the original stadium, but this 50,000 plus seat venue has still seen numerous events held there. Yankee Stadium has been home to concerts, college football bowl games and was even a part of the 2014 NHL Stadium Series.
