The New York City FC will have to travel to Los Angeles, California, three thousand 900 kilometers away, for his meeting of the CONCACAF Champions League against Santos of Costa Rica.
The stadium of the New York team, Yankee Stadium, It does not have the approval of the Confederation of North, Central America and the Caribbean, so it has sought a new venue to play its matches.
The Bank of California, House of LAFC will be the property that receives the New York City FC for your commitment to Concacaf since a few days later they will face the Galaxy, so the team seeks more adequate logistics for their travel plans, avoiding traveling long distances.
“It’s frustrating that this crazy game is being played on the other side of the country, but with our first game of the MLS season being against the Galaxy in Los Angeles just a few days later, and our inability to play at Yankee Stadium or one of our alternate stadiums, we feel this arrangement gives our club the best chance of getting two positive results this week,” said NYCFC CEO Brad Sims.
Previously, the American club has played local games at Citi Field and Red Bull Arena due to the impossibility of their stadium.
