Spokane Velocity FC is hosting an exhibition match with an international opponent

Velocity FC will be hosting the match at ONE Spokane Stadium on Sunday, June 2 at 6 p.m.

SPOKANE, Wash. — Spokane Velocity FC announced it will be hosting a friendly match at ONE Spokane Stadium against international opponent C.D. Guadalajara (Chivas) on Sunday, June 2 at 6 p.m. 

The Chivas are a professional Mexican football club based in Jalisco, Mexico. The team competes in the top tier of Mexican football.

“Playing against a strong opponent tends to bring the best out in players so it'll be a fun yet valuable experience for the team, “said Leigh Veidman, Velocity FC Head Coach. “With us having a large break between matches it's really important for us to stay in a good rhythm of playing so we can continue to improve. Aside from that, it's always enjoyable to test yourself against high level opposition with a different style of play than we are used to.”

Velocity FC fans who purchased season tickets or the "5 Match Flex Pack," will be able to attend this game. Tickets for the match are now on sale, click here.

 “Both Spokane Velocity FC and Zephyr FC look forward to hosting international friendlies at ONE Spokane Stadium throughout the year, and we look forward to sending our teams into the world next year so that our players, coaches and fans can have that same experience abroad,” said Ryan Harnetiaux, Co-Owner and Managing Partner of USL Spokane.
