Soccer may not be the most popular sport in America, but with the best player in the world now playing in the MLS, the sport has been taking the country by storm. Ever since Lionel Messi signed a deal to play for Inter Miami, sports fans all over the US have been trying to get tickets to see the star play in person. Luckily for fans in DFW, Messi will be in town this weekend as his team takes on FC Dallas.
With the MLS Leagues Cup currently underway, soccer fans in North Texas were gifted a dream matchup this week, when Inter Miami beat Orlando City SC and FC Dallas beat Liga MX club Mazatlán FC, setting up a matchup between the two clubs. According to WFAA, the game will be at Toyota Stadium in Frisco on Sunday, August 6. Tickets for the game will go on sale to the general public Thursday at 11AM.
For those hoping to see Messi live, tickets won’t come cheap. Prices start at $199 and will be available at price points of $249, $399 and $499 as well. While the chance to see Messi will bring most to the game, many are still hoping to see FC Dallas come out on top.
