The CFC Boys in Blue are preparing for a truly unprecedented event. In just four days, MLS expansion club Atlanta United FC will play it's first match EVER, and they're playing it against Chattanooga FC in Finley Stadium.
Atlanta United FC has already sold 27,000 season tickets for the upcoming season, and are expected to bring many of those fans 102 miles north to Finley Stadium this Saturday, February 11th, at 3:00pm.
"It really is a David vs. Goliath situation, and we need every CFC fan in attendance to help us cheer on our home team," said Sean McDaniel, GM for Chattanooga FC.
"We met a lot of Atlanta United fans this past weekend at the Men's National team game, and they all told us they were coming back for this. This is our opportunity to show a major league club exactly why Chattanooga is such a great soccer town. It has all the makings of a great atmosphere and a great game."
Ticket sales are strong, and the team is expecting several thousand in attendance.
Saturday's match tickets are available at bit.ly/CFCvsATL. All available season pass options include entry to the Atlanta United FC match, as well as all regular season, playoff, cup matches, and friendlies for 2017.
