Arrowhead is one of the venues for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, so this match may be kinda a preview of what things will look like a couple of years from now.
A lot of people were there because of the location. People that live in the state’s surrounding area (Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas) they don’t have the opportunity to see Messi and considering 70+ thousand you’ll have more of a 50/50 crowd.
This was the fourth largest crowd in MLS history. The largest crowd in MLS history was actually over 82,000 at the Rose Bowl for LAFC versus LA Galaxy in 2023. The second largest was 74,479 for Charlotte in 2022 for their home opener against the LA galaxy. The third largest was 73,019 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium for the MLS Cup Final 2018- Atlanta United versus Portland Timbers. The next 9 largest crowds are all Atlanta United home matches ranging from 70,000 to 72,000.
If you couldn't tell, SKC is a lower table team. They can be dangerous in attack, but have one of the worst defenses in the league. They've now allowed 9 goals in their last 3 games, all at home.
5:00 "don't put a wall" reminded me of a anecdote by former dutch PSV player Rene van der Gijp, where during a European game they tried it without a wall, and wouldn't you know it, the freekick taker absolutely yeeted that ball through the net. Rene jokingly said; and from that moment on we put a wall right from kickoff! 🤣
Daz, my InterMiami boys are first in the Eastern conference and 2nd overall in the MLS. I wouldn't mind winning the Supporters Shield and the MLS Cup. That's pretty much all that's left for us. Maybe another Leagues Cup. For me, It's MLS Cup or Bust.
You lot in the comments need to chill out about them only watching Miami. The reason why is clear. Imagine Lebron went to play in the Norwegian basketball league. Would you expect NBA fans to watch highlights of the other games in that league? I get that you all would like to see them watch your teams, but be for real.
I was at the game. The Miami crowd wasn’t there for the team, they were there to see Messi play. I was there supporting KC, but watching Messi score was on my bucket list and I’m sure it was the same way for most everyone else
4:52 no, u need a wall, it would be more easy to score, cause you dont need to waste efforts to curve the ball over nothing, and, even with wall, roberto carlos scored from even more distance than that messi's free kick 6:25 thats what happens if you dont put a wall in a free kick
@@bnd4ever48 In addition to small ownership stakes, in the KC Current (NWSL) and Sporting KC (MLS), he also has a stake in the Kansas City Royals (MLB). Turns out being good at quarterback is quite lucrative.
The largest crowd in MLS history that was played at a teams Home venue was 74,479 for Charlotte in 2022 for their home opener against the LA galaxy. The largest crowd at a neutral venue was over 82,000 at the Rose Bowl for LAFC versus LA Galaxy in 2023. This was not a record-breaking crowd and this was also not Kansas City’s home venue.
It was a record for a soccer game in KC. A lot of the pundits compare it to an MLS cup at Arrowhead years ago that only drew 26k, so this is considered evidence of how much the sport has grown in that city.
@@stevenygabbyperez695 while it may be a record for a game in the city of Kansas City to talk about it being a general MLS attendance record is simply factually untrue, and to say it’s a club record is somewhat misleading. Games play at venues that they don’t typically play at, should not count as their club record.
@gracielynn9623 No one said its an MLS record unless they were some international pesron who don't know what they are talking about. Why are you so sensitive about this anyway. Who cares what some people think. MLS fans know the truth.
@@stevenygabbyperez695 I care because it’s important. it’s MLS records. It’s general information. If people are going to say it wrong then it needs to be corrected. Otherwise everybody will just believe the wrong information.
Kansas City is a small town and the stadium is old and in the middle of a giant parking lot. But KC does javelin one thing going for them, it’s a soccer town.
I would not call it a small town, mid sized maybe. KC is right around the 30th largest, but as recent as the 1950's, it was like the 18th largest metro. USA has lot of mid sized cities. I wish their sports stadiums were in more urban parts of the city though.
They are NOT the same size at all. A FIFA regulation pitch is much larger than an american football field. they had to widen it and lengthen it for this match.
You are both correct and incorrect. An American football field is 120 yards long (including endzones, after all, part of the field of play). That length is satisfactory for a FIFA international match. By including the areas occupied by team benches, the pitch of a football stadium is usually wide enough. This particular stadium (opened 1973) has a tapered seating bowl at the ends, which results in a narrower field than FIFA wants. (This field was narrower than the field at SKC's usual home venue.) The stadium authority (Jackson County) and leaseholder (the Chiefs) will have to rip out seats in the corners before the World Cup in order to arrive at the required width for a World Cup match. Meanwhile, this match and the upcoming Copa America match did/will unfold on a slightly narrower pitch.
How come you only cover MLS when it’s Miami and only when Miami wins? There are 28 other teams. Edit: they covered Monterey versus Miami in the champions cup.
@@vortexathletic they really should check out everybody. They claim to be neutral but refused to check out anybody else. Minnesota United and real Salt Lake and Charlotte and the earthquakes and the galaxy should all be exposure time against each other and not just against Miami if they’re truly neutral.
Kyle mate you keep commenting this, but don't hold your breath. people dont even watch NASCAR over here anymore, so a reaction video would get almost no views. i get that you like and and wished they'd react, but you have to be realistic
Messi playing and scoring infront of 72,000 supporters and Ronaldo getting sent off in the desert infront of 7200 people !!!. It's about time Ronaldo fans come out of their bubble !!!.
