Who knew Guadeloupe had a team?
Gotta admit, didn’t even know it was a place.

Guatemala and Cuba up next, those I’ve heard of.

Oh Canada, that’s the wrong goal.
Soccer folks, how common is scoring a goal for the other team (I think they called it “own goal”??)?

Perfect day for a game.

My 10 year old daughter plays competitive soccer. We bought tickets to see the Current July 22nd. Stadium looks nice and doesn’t look like there’s a bad seat in the house. How’s the stadium? We’re in section 111 row 23. Should be out of the sun.

Was in STL for the Gold Cup match. The stadium is really nice, and I also do like the area around the stadium with all the old buildings. It’s definitely a better aesthetic than a shopping mall and racetrack, I’ll concede them that.

All that being said, I’m not giving them too much credit as a fanbase yet because MLS always has a “hot new club”. SKC was effectively this for a few seasons after the rebrand and opening of Sporting Park. Hell, I remember when Toronto was the Class of MLS or whatever. But it doesn't last. Give them a few bad years and the shine wears off, MLS media moves on to the new expansion etc.

Downtown STL is like the Purge now days.

Our Sporting season tickets are in 111/22. Great view and no evening sun. Enjoy!

Nice. Was hoping I bought the right spots to avoid the sun.

You wont be disappointed. SKC Stadium was built in a way where regardless where you have a ticket at, its a good view and a fun time.

St Louis has one of if not the best soccer cultures in the US. They will always be a centerpiece for the MLS.
