The madness has begun. New England 0 Chelsea 3 Loftus Cheek tears Achilles, will miss Europa League final, meaning the Revs could have a role to play in a European trophy 27,329 at Gillette raising $4 million to fight anti-semitism. (Abramovich and Kraft donated a million each). I wonder, with these 2 being so rich, couldn't they have just donated a million more, and not played the game

Obviously there is still a ways to go as far as announcements but so far for MLS teams: DC United: 2 games Minnesota United: 2 New England: 1 Colorado: 1 Dallas: 1 Seattle: 1 Updates to come.
We still have one more special event ticket in our season ticket plans. I don't know if it'll be a 3rd friendly (there are rumblings about playing a Mexican team this fall), or if they'll use it for an Open Cup game, or a playoff game (ha!) just yet, though.
DC United 2 - Real Betis 5 11,201 Minnesota United 0 Hertha Berlin 1 Kevin Molino injured 18,704 first non-sellout at Allianz.
FCD is hosting their old boss and his new club on July 7: FC Dallas Hosts Liga MX’s Club Tijuana Xoloitzcuintles de Caliente in International Friendly on July 7 at Toyota Stadium I guess it'll be something akin to a testimonial for Óscar Pareja.
Real Betis 4 - Chattanooga FC 3 with 6,115 watching. Time Free Press repeatedly called Real Betis "one of the top teams in the world"...
And that concludes the madness of postseason euro friendlies. We will shortly return with the madness of preseason euro friendlies

That makes them a top table team in Spain, which I wouldn't describe as one of the best in the world. I guess you have to define best. They might just be in the top 10% in the world...
