    Cleaned up some banter that doesn't really belong here.

    I understand and respect what you're saying. What I don't understand is why it seems ok to bash on Russia, Qatar and some other countries but the second you criticize the US your message is immedeatly deleted.
    I understand it's an american forum and I respect that, I just don't think the same amount of respect is shown to every country.

    No offense, but did you wander in here from another forum? This thread was really just a discussion of foreign friendlies here in the USA. I don't see any bashing of other countries going on here.

    Went to this one. It was fun. Both teams had chances, the atmosphere was good. No complaints.

    (University of Phoenix Stadium is actually in Glendale, Ariz., FWIW.)

    Article on Stephen Ross, the Dolphins owner, who runs the ICC:

    https://www.si.com/nfl/2018/07/25/miami-dolphins-stephen-ross-soccer-real-madrid-barcelona

    In the beginning, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross just wanted to fill seats. So, his first reaction to seeing 70,000 fans stuff his stadium for a Wednesday night exhibition soccer match between Chivas and FC Barcelona in 2011 was: “Maybe there’s something here.” Nevermind that Ross would need help identifying Leo Messi on the pitch, that he would have struggled to describe El Clasico or that he still has to catch himself from calling the sport’s biggest rivalry The Clasico. This former tax attorney from Michigan was going to help make soccer in America happen.
