Arsenal and Chelsea, from England, will face each other in the United States for the Florida Cup, on July 23. Held in the state of Florida since 2015, the competition is a platform that unites the best players from Europe and the Americas in an international football showdown.
The English derby closes the FC Series 2022, a new event that encompasses the “Clash of Nations” and the “Florida Cup”. The first will include major international clashes, with three friendly matches, always with rounds played by clubs from different countries representing their nations.
The traditional Florida Cup trophy will be played in the final confrontation between the two European powers in Orlando, at Camping World Stadium.
“The FC Series is a strategic expansion of the Florida Cup and will attract tens of thousands of fans to the matches, while millions more watch around the world. We can’t wait to welcome these powerful global brands to the US,” said event CEO Ricardo Villar.
