In what promises to be the most anticipated soccer match on American soil since the 1994 World Cup, Chelsea FC vs. Inter Milan, will take place at the Rose Bowl on Tuesday, July 21. The game will help kick off the inaugural World Football Challenge.
The meeting of two international soccer powerhouses, Chelsea and Inter Milan, is expected to be an epic competition not seen for fifteen years in Southern California. The match celebrates three milestones at the Rose Bowl – the 10th anniversary of the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the 15th anniversary of the FIFA Men’s World Cup and the 25th anniversary of soccer played at the 1984 Summer Olympics. Yet the upcoming match will stand on it own merits – never before have more than 40 World Cup players and six National Team captains taken the field together at the Rose Bowl. Fans can expect to see legendary first-team players that will include Michael Ballack, John Terry, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and John Terry (Chelsea), and Hernan Crespo, Luis Figo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Javier Zanetti (Inter Milan).
The game will also mark the first time that current Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho will meet his former side.
