Circle July 28 on your calendar. Chelsea and AC Milan are coming to Sun Life Stadium as part of the World Football Challenge.
Last summer's Barcelona vs. Chivas match was such a huge success (71,000 fans) that big-time international soccer is coming back.
Tickets start at $29 and go on sale THIS Thursday, May 10, through Ticketmaster. Kickoff for the match is 6 p.m.
“Miami is a soccer hotbed,” said Mike Dee, CEO of the Miami Dolphins. “This announcement continues the tradition of bringing world-class events to our facility.”
Chelsea has never played here. AC Milan last played here against the Colombian national team in 1994 in front of 57,000 fans.
A game like this would have been so much more fun at The Orange Bowl. Oh well.

The problem with these games is you never know what you're going to get. In some cases they field a team of no names and you never get to see the players you came to watch!
