Manchester United

We find the Phoenix Rising games are more exciting than the Manchester vs. Club America game. I felt like it was their B team on tour. I don't think the clubs should tour without their all stars. On a side note, Croatia owned the FIFA Cup game and the bad free kick call when France scored the first goal changed the dynamics.

I really enjoyed the Manchester v Club America game, they played a good game.

Hi, the "meet & great" event was extremely unorganized. First you cancel the original training session of 5pm and moved it up to 11am not even taking into account people flying in from other parts of the country to see this event. You didn't even give us a 24 hour notice of this change. We had to do a lot to get to Levi Stadium early. In our case we spent over $360 to change our flight to an earlier one and try to catch the training session, and at the end after all our effort we missed it! No one at the entrance of the stadium checked people for tickets or gave any guidance to this monumental event. I saw Levi stadium officials walking around with radios, but none of them were available for guidance. I'm appalled and feel insulted that your event was so unorganized. My little niece didn't event get to see her favorite team train.

The level of play was much greater than expected. The facilities were amazing. We were on club level and I was afraid our seats would not be very good but it looked as if all seats would have been great. We had a perfect view.

Stadium was great! Definitely need a stoplight or cop standing at entrance/exit to help traffic flow a little better. Seats were great!!! It was a very exciting game. Was impressed with the performance of the Kansas City Wizards. Manchester United was off, and definitely should have taken out #32, Diouf. He was always a step behind. if they had a stronger forward they would have won.

I'm not a fan of Manchester United, but having the opportunity to see a premiere league team play in MO was one I couldn't pass up. It was a great experience, our seats were awesome and we had a great time. I hope another team plays over here next year.

Overall had a great time at the game .... had a few minor problems. Security and stadium personel didn't have the foggiest idea of how and when to let people into the stadium ...... one person would tell us one thing then another would tell us that was completely wrong and proceed to tell us something completely different ...... getting out of the parking lot at the end was a bit of an adventure ..... the crew directing traffic didn't even look like they could drive a car let alone direct the traffic in a sensible manner .... so in whole .... the game was great except for some home town officiating but thats not ticketmaster's fault ......

New Arrowhead is really nice. Great game, wonderful opponent. Really put KC on the national/international soccer scene. Lamar is smiling. Thanks to Manchester United, hope you enjoyed barbecue and KC hospitality.

The game, facilities, parking and thrill were all there. I just wish that my team, Man. U., would have played better. Exiting the stadium was a bit of a problem, since traffic was re-directed for anyone wishing to travel eastbound on I-70.

The atmosphere before and during the game was incredible -- everything we had hoped for at an MLS-EPL level game. The Wizards definitely did not disappoint even though Man U didn't have their top line-up for the game.

Awesome to see Man U for the first time, regardless of incomplete roster. Wizards played inspired and showed themselves off very well.

Game was good with a great turnout but Traffic and Parking was terrible, they should have done a better job in that respect.

even though Mancester United did not play everyone due to the recent World Cup, they did present a good effort which makes the KC Wizzards win that much better- especailly with KC losing its best player at the end of the 1st period and playing short for all of the 2nd period. Very good support by the locals and this would be a great venue for 2018 or 2022 Word Cup games

Brilliant attendance, great atmosphere, where did all the man U fans come from, I know they are the biggest club in the world (Oh I am English and have stood on the Stretford end and used to be a season ticket holder when I lived over there) but to see so many United shirts here in the mid West was special. Wizards were up for it and deserved the victory. Go get the World Cup and bring it to Kansas !

Beautiful newly refurbished stadium, and the Wizards beat Man U! Fantastic event.

This was a great event. Lot's of fans and lots of fun. Nothing like great soccer on a Sunday afternoon.

Game was great, weather little hot, could have been a lot worse. Sad Rooney or Owen wasnt there

Venue great. Soccer was a bit sloppy at times, but when they played spot on, was great to see in person. Would have been nice if staff would NOT have let people bring in those loud, obnoxious horns from world cup!!!!!! I rec'd an e-mail on Friday from venue, specifically saying noise makers were not allowed. So if people snuck them in, find and take away from people!

it was great to see the support of soccer in Kansas City. Wish Manchester had brought their team and not loaded it up with their 'b' team. They weren't playing at their full potential. Wizards made a great showing however! Wish Kansas City/Arrowhead had prepared more for traffic control. Sat on 435 North for 1 1/2 hours trying to get off on Raytown exit because signs said Stadium drive was closed and it ended up not being closed. Thanks KC Public Works.

Great game. Good to see the home town team beat a world powerhouse.

I was proud to be an American soccer fan on this day, as many people around the nation showed up to support Manchester United and the Kansas City Wizards! Absolutely awesome experience! Parking was easy, finding seats was easy. People that worked for Arrowhead were very helpful. Can't wait to get more soccer venues here! It just goes to show you that Soccer is on the rise in America!

It was awesome watching on of the greatest soccer powers in the world battle against the native Wizards. They even got down to 10 men an still pulled out a victory against the Red Devils. Great game.

It was an awesome game, the new Arrowhead looks simply amazing.

My boyfriend and I had a great time at the game. I am so happy that ManU came to Toronto. The stadium was very easy to find and the city was super fun. We even loved it when the chants were going on during and after the game. I would totally recommend this experience to anyone.

$130 for a ticket for this event at Rogers Centre. More expensive than a ticket for Blue Jays game and yet only a fraction of the service provided. Two people serving at one of the few open refreshment stalls. Strict enforcement by security of which seat to sit in, despite numerous empty seats all around the stadium. Ridiculous ID'ing policy for everyone buying alcohol with ID required for at least 2 people if buying more than one alcoholic drink. Poor service, poor value, poor event.

The match itself was fantastic, much livelier than other recent friendlies and both clubs gave it an honest effort. Crowd atmosphere was great, nice and loud. It's too bad the 500 level section was so empty and I was shocked at how expensive those seats were --- if they sold some of the 500 level seats for around $30 (as opposed to $75 for all nosebleeds) the place would have sold out. Furthermore, I found it to be a joke that we were not permitted to PURCHASE a match program without purchasing an item of clothing. Absurd, and some of those programs being tossed into the recycle bin could have been sold to us. Organizers need to think these things out more carefully --- sometimes charging too much will make you lose business. Thankfully United and Celtic put on a good show.

The venue was very convenient and clean. Security personnel were pleasant.

Wow, what a great event! I'm a female senior citizen who went by myself but it was so festive! Before (a quick dinner at the Renaissance since all the pubs were full) with fans singing and cheering; during of course; and after (even an hour after the match ended, Man Utd fans crowded the streets and we all high fived and cheered and waved). It was wonderful to see the players in the flesh; to have a chance to see the new guys and the young players in action; and when after the match ended they all circled the perimeter of the field applauding us, the fans while we cheered them wildly - well, they are a great TEAM and that is what I love about them.

Would like to have seen more first-string players than second-string ones.

Great game. The only issue was some of the big players didn't play.

Great seats on the midfield line. Both teams gave an excellent performance and the fans and staff were great. It did take almost 2 hours to reach the venue which was 16 miles away. Left at 5:00 and arrived at 6:45. We would have been later, but we had a parking pass and we were waved out of the line of cars and directed to our parking lot. Well worth the money and a great experience.

PRO: Had a great time seeing two great teams practice/play. The food provided during the buffet was outstanding. CON: Would have like to get Wayne Rooney's autograph but he totally blew off the VIP section who paid for an autograph session. Misinformed security guard would not allow VIP patrons to bring cameras into the event.

We were expecting to see the greatest soccer players in the world, and Man U came through with Rooney, Nani, Giggs, etc.; but Barcelona short changed the crowd by not having Messi in the lineup. Fed Ex needs to work on their parking. We had to forge a creek to get from our lot to the stadium and at the games end we waited 1:45 mins to get out of the parking lot. Fed Ex also has a policy of frisking everyone, but not for weapons it seems. I had a box of raisins in my pocket and was told I couldn't bring any outside food into the arena. How rediculous!

good game with a great atomsphere created by well behaved supporters of both teams,

Not worth the money when Barcelona sends their Junior team an 4 starters... they didn't even put the names of the kids on their practice jerseys lol

Great Stadium, Great game~! GREATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

The best weekend ever, two nights to remember the rest of my life. Goals, pictures, autographs, videos, the two best teams in the world Man U. 2 & Barcelona 1.

There was a great atmosphere at Fed Ex Field, split about 60-40 in favor of Barcelona fans, but with each side's supporters mixed in, rather than segregated as is normal in Europe. This lead to friendly "taunts", smiles and back-slaps as each team took turns seizing momentum. The attendance of nearly 82,000 set a record for a football match in the DC area, and the pre-game tailgating was as festive and lively as at any other sporting event, maybe more so. Having already seen Man U on their first stop of this tour vs the New England Revs in Boston, I was mainly excited to see Barca- the best club in the world. The day before the match, I learned that none of the players active in the recent Copa America would be playing, which included Dani Alves, Javier Mascherano, and of course, the great Leo Messi. So I knew going in that the squad fielded by Pep Guardiola would be missing some key players. However, he elected to also not play several first-team starters who had made the tour, including Pique, Puyol, and lamentably, Xavi. Absent his creative partner in the midfield, Inesta was unable to reproduce the flowing possesion and mesmerizing triangle ball-movement that is such a beautiful and effective part of the Blaugrana attack. While young Thiago Alcantra continues to be a revelation, and provided a memorable curling strike from outside the 18-yard box, he could not, nor can anyone, fill the void created by Messi's absence. So while I was disappointed not to see the greatest player on the planet at this friendly, it did serve to even further whet my appetite for next month, when I'll be attending Osasuna vs Barcelona at the Camp Nou in a regular-season La Liga fixture. Odds are the brightest star in the football world will be there, in all his glittering glory!

The dream matchup between FC Barcelona and Manchester United was overshadowed for me by the sheer awfulness of the stadium. Our seats were fine, but then again we had paid $180 a piece. Everything else was basically a disaster, starting with parking. We had been told it's free, which is true. But we were not told that we would be guided to the so-called Grey Lot, which is a gravel lot without markings or directions. To get to the stadium, we followed the crowd through a small forrest and across a creek. You had to leap across, unless you preferred to brave a small wooden bridge that had cracked in two. (I am not making this up; see photo below.) To get into the stadium, we were roughly searched (for food and drink -- a bottle of water costs $5 in the stadium). Once in, we asked for directions to our seats. We were pointed in one direction. It turned out to be the wrong one. (We later asked for directions to our section and to the restrooms -- both times wrong again.) We were pointed to an escalator that would take us to the "Club" level and the fancy seats. But the line to the escalator was perhaps 40 to 50 yards long, snaking past concession stands where people we trying to buy things. The line of hundreds of people basically did not move, even though we could see that very few people actually made it onto the escalator. It turned out it was because every single ticket was checked to make sure you qualified for the privilege of being at the "Club" level. What is more, because of the poor organization, people continuously cut the line. We spent about 25 minutes in the escalator line (meant for the privileged), getting us to our seats five minutes before kickoff. Temperatures hovered around 95 degrees that day. Needless to say, we had neither the time nor the inclination to make use of any of the amenities there. We were told that there we stairs leading to the upper floor, which could only be used in an emergency. Hmm. I am leaving out the account of the bathroom that looked to me to be of the size made for a medium-sized restaurant, not a 90,000-seat stadium, or the sound system which made it impossible to understand anything that was announced. I wouldn't attend an event at FedExField if you paid me (OK, if you paid me the $180 I just shelled out, maybe).

The game itself was great, but horrible traffic flow in the FedEx Field vicinity nearly caused me to miss kickoff when I should have arrived over an hour ahead of time based on any normal calculation. I don't think I will attend an event at this location again, even if it is an attractive matchup such as Man U vs. Barcelona, it just isn't worth the aggravation to try to get to such a poorly accessible venue.

I am a huge American Man U fan and when I got the chance to see them live I jumped at the chance. I sat in the loge seats and they were great: free food and nicely priced drinks. Great view too. Manchester won 2-1 and watching the goals and cheering was exciting! GGMU!

I dont tink I will go to another event to Redskins stadium. The parking organization was very bad. I cant remember a stadium with such a problem. The rest was perfect. Thanks...

Awesome game... just wished more of the best players have come or play on the tour. Keep bringing the best of the soccer teams to the US!!! Fedex Field is a great venue, very nice facilities.

Awsome Awsome Awsome Awsome Awsome Awsome Awsome Awsome

never saw b4 stars like the player's of manchester united it was a great game bring some other europe team's next year ! = ) thank you ticket master.....=)

Was worried that right after the cup that this game would be a disappointment, but both teams played extremely hard and it was tons of fun! Any chance you get to see professional soccer/futbol match, I say go!

A great show, good organization, order and security. We wish more events with Club America in Arizona.

It was a great game and an enthusiastic audience. When our son was young, we coached his Junior Soccer League Team so we had a real appreciation of the skills exhibited by both teams. The venue was perfect with special services for the handicap. My husband has a broken tendon in his foot and has a huge boot which makes it very difficult to walk any distance so we were hesitant to attend the game prior to finding out that they had handicap services. They picked us up in the parking lot and delivered us to the door where they put him in a wheel chair and delivered us to our seats in the handicap section. The Brats were messy but delicious!!!

Had a great time, fun seeing players of the future! Seats were great! Temperature inside was perfect! Leaving parking lot after was an absolute nightmare!!!

Despite missing World Cup players, a good competitive match in a nice setting.

I took my nephew who is a huge Soccer fan. Great seats, fun crowd, good atmosphere. Would definitely go again.

Great event. Once again University of Phoenix Stadium shows they don't know or don't care about top level soccer. They didn't bother to provide ball kids around the pitch, so players were chasing down errant balls. They understaff both food and merch concessions.

Great event, however, concessions were severely understaffed. Long lines everywhere.

Not all the good players were there, you pay good money and it was quite boring. As much as we like man united I wouldn t pay what we did to go see them again

Probably 3rd string Man U team. Bad match. No one played well

Great competition between two powerhouses in the soccer arena.

Would have been nice if game wasn t scheduled the week after the World Cup. Many of ManU big names did not play

Man U has been nothing but diasapointing! Over priced tickets for a boring game. Felt as if I was watching high school soccer.

Had a great time, wife and kids loved the event. Venue was top notch.

Manchester United was incredible! It was awesome to be there!

Getting to the west side off Phoenix traffic sucks!

THE venue made the event bearable. The game itself appeared more like an exhibition game

It may be just that we were coming off a World Cup high, but the game was slow and no set pieces. Without the stars there that were in the World Cup, it was like watching a local soccer game. Should have had a lower price point for the event.

It was awesome. I would go again in a heartbeat!!!

Everything was great. From the organization of the parking to the purchase of the tickets

This event was amazing! Great atmosphere, amazing stadium andaasing action.

Very pleased with the organization of the event and the numerous reminder emails sent! From the parking lot and the ease to getting into the event with no issues! To top it off a great match of Manchester United v club America . Thanks for the great memories !

Great match, great drink prices and staffing was spot on. Parking and traffic was deplorable! Hold it downtown Phx next time!

Paying too see a training session when other got free tickets to watch the same thing as paying people Actually some of the free ticket holders got to go on the field. I wish they blocked off a certain seating area for paying customers. Dinner was at a steak place but no steak. Meet and Greet was nice we got to take a picture with them but no autographs which is too bad. Also there was a change with practice times so they comp us tickets to the game which was nice if only I didn't already have tickets to the game. So it was a waste. Did like that they also threw in a tour of Levi Stadium. All in all wouldn't purchase this again.

Many fans who bought this ticket paid $160 in hopes to obtain autographs. Although the info does have a disclaimer about autographs aren't guaranteed, it failed to mention that the people who paid $160 were going to share the training session with roughly 300 kids fr youth academics, schools, and hundreds of other of people who paid $20 to free admission and obtained same or better seats and privileges than those who paid $160. The staff that handled the event was completely clueless. The event was changed 4 hours earlier and all of a sudden the staff became ignorant of what was going on. If I would had known that we paid $160 only to be packed with hundreds of other people who got in for free I would had definitely not had gone. The Los Angeles training event was exclusive only to those who paid a ticket and nearly everyone got an autograph. They did make up for it, which is why I'm leaving a 2 star review instead of 1. They had and open buffet bar to those who paid the $160 and also gave them complementary club tickets to the game (even though 90% people already had game tickets). bottom line: we spent hours driving to the event to show up early only to find that people were basically getting in for free only to find those same people got better seats and privileges (on field access). I paid $160 ($100 for LA event) to have a 0.01% of autographs. It was a waste of my, my family's, time and money. I could had used that time with my family doing something productive. I was searching for autographs, I could had spent this time to catch FCB at their hotel with a better experience and free, at that, than waste $160 with this disorganized event.

This event was simply for pocketing money from honest soccer enthusiasts. Barca team changed their training schedule to 11 AM. How can you just leave your work in middle of the day without giving a notice. Moreover, they did not declare the 'legends' the day the tickets went on sale. I was delayed for the evening event by 40 mins and the legends had already left. $150 for what ? A buffet and beer ? Ridiculous.

Long story short, the game start at 1pm on the game day, and you organized an open practice on 7pm the day before game day, which is non sense. That's why Barcelona wanted to change to 11am, so players can get a bit rest. According to that, fans lost their chance to get closer to players. Meet the legends was another poor event. The food was disappointed, whole section was pushed to go fast and finished less than an hour. VIP fans didn't get any signatures in the morning so we want at least get legends'. Anyways, poor experience for fans, although behind the scene of Levi's stadium was cool.

Very great game just getting to the stadium takes a while.

Would have been 5 stars but there was only one will call office

i dont see all the player i waiting for, i dont understand why barcelona bring all their player

1) Shame, the pre-session was not incluided in the ticket as offered to us. I had to pay 30 dollars extra each plus the shame when I tried to go inside. 2) Exhausted: the promotion said: you can go 3 hours before the game to the Suite and the game's day we was there 3 hours before, but surprise: the Stadium administration said they open the doors is only 2 hours before the games. We stayed out of the Stadium with 96 degrees, without any consideration. Can somebody to fix and coordinate as well these kind of matters to avoid more shame or ridiculous moments like the mentionated? This is the third time that I write, and does not have responses.

Manchester United & Barcelona did not disappoint. The level of soccer was excellent for a preseason game. The atmosphere at the stadium was incredible. Over 81,000 fans attended & the fans were split almost evenly. There was a lot of chanting & singing. It was a very European like atmosphere

Barcelona did to much passing of the ball back and forth to each other. Would have liked to see more action on their part. No first string players. Did not seem they wanted to win the game. This was for my grandson and he would have liked to see Barcelona win, but he was happy to see them play even if his favorite players were not there. He is 16 years old.

I enjoyed the match, particularly Manchester United's squad. United played the majority of it's stars for at least 45 minutes. Barcelona's resting of Messi was justifiable; however, the team on the pitch was little more than a reserve squad. The fans deserved more for what they paid. The drive to the stadium wasn't bad yet the parking was chaos. The parking lot attendants had no clue what they were doing. Once inside, the stadium officials did a poor job of keeping the aisles clear and preventing fans from rushing to the front. Leaving the stadium was insane- pedestrians and cars jockeying for the same space.

The player I bought tickets to go see suffered a concussion and couldnt play... Despite that there were hardly any starters playing... No chicharito, no messi, no xavi, no everyone... It was a boring game... Even though it was a friendly both teams could have played some starters and put a kittle effort into it... It may as well be called a practice game.... The crowd was not into the game... My team WON amd it was still boring . The game was boring and definitely not worth my $300 ticket.. I would go again but I wouldn't pay more than $45 for a ticket.

FedEx Field is a great venue for soccer. I could see the entire field with no real blind spots. However, the stadium staff needs to get their act together. The aisles need to remain clear during the match. Stadium officials should promptly remove all fans attempting to watch the match from the aisles.

Both teams played like they were in practice.. especially FC Barcelona! not fighting for that win. I was also upset for Guardiola's decision on pulling out their key players on the beginning of the second half. Manchester United played with heart no complains there! also barcelona didn't have a lot of their key players like Messi, Xavi, Puyol and Pique. Overall it was entertaining and was glad to see Rooney, Iniesta, Pedro, and Villa play live.

The game was really great but the training session was unforgettable! Althought the training session was cool, it could have been a lot much better. It was really crowded and i was being smooshed by the crowd, it really should have been more organized. Also it was upsetting that the people who weren't VIP got more of the attention and got more autographs. VIP people were supposed to get exclusive autograph area...only for VIP. Also the some of the players weren't engaged with the fans. But at the end it really was an amazing experiance and was really fun!

The soccer match between Manchester United and Barcelona was awesome. It was a great atmosphere and an even better game.

Though for many it was the experience of a life time, it was very disappointing that only one team (Manchester United) brought their stars to play. For the Barcelona fans, it was more than a disappointment to not see players such as Messi on the field Mancherster United was superb...go ManU!!!!

Classic! Great game, we had an awesome time and got to see one hell-of-a game!

I WILL NEVER GO TO FEDEX FIELD AGAIN. This was a total disappointment. The parking situation was a complete joke. We sat in stopped traffic for over an hour, 1 MILE from the stadium. Finally, 3 minutes before kick-off, my wife said, "You can get out and walk. I'll park the car." So I took off and luckily only missed the first 5 minutes of the game. My wife, however, missed the entire first half. Nearly two hours sitting in the car just outside the parking lot because the parking staff was so terrible. And the staff inside wasn't much better. It almost seemed like they were prepared for an attendance of 10k instead of a sold out crowd of over 80k. We were looking forward to this game for MONTHS (huge United fans), and in the end, we wished we would have stayed home and watched it on TV. I WILL NEVER GO TO FEDEX FIELD AGAIN.

The experience of being able to see two of the most well known teams in the world was incredible, but more meaningful as I was able to share it with my family.

GREAT VENUE, US SOCCER RECORD OF ATTENDANCE!!!, BUT BARCELONA PLAYED THEIR "B" AND "C" LINE UP, I DROVE 5 HOURS TO SEE THE REAL BARCELONA, AND THEY'RE KEY PLAYERS DIDN'T PLAY, SOME OF THEM DON'T EVEN SHOWED UP!!!!! MANCHESTER WAS A LITTLE BETTER. IS SAD THAT SUCH A GREAT VENUE, A FULL HOUSE NEEDED TO SEE SUCH A BAD GAME. I PAID TO SEE MESSI, PIQUET, PUYOL, XAVI, PEDRO, DANI ALVES, ETC NEXT TIME THEIR NOT ROBBING ME AGAIN!!!!!

This event was champion caliber. The stands where a wild collage of red and white, and, blue and claret. A true international merge of all nations were represented during this intense match. The comradery of the diverse fans was amazing. The match met all expectations, with no real contreversy. Now the down side. Getting to the stadium. From our start it was a 20 min ride, took 1hr to reach the stadium (left 5:00 pm match started 7:00pm). Took 1hr 15min to get parked and in the seat(club level). We had to park in a field (price was free) , but had to walk through a heavy wooded area and a creek (good thing it hasn't rain in awhile) too reach the stadium. After match 2 hours just to leave parking area. (ended 9:15 arrived home12:30am remember 20 min ride) Yes this was DC so recommend researching future facilities for parking and logistics.

Great game! Great venue! This was my first time visiting FedEx field and it was a wonderful place to host the Champions League Final rematch.

I was extremely excited to watch top European soccer here on American soil. The only problem was that Barcelona didn't show up! They played their "B" team most of the game and their biggest star, Lionel Messi, didn't even show up. That would be like the L.A. Lakers going to play in Barcelona.....and not having Kobe Show up. I was pretty disappointed to say the least. The tickets were 154 dollars each too......Trust me.....I won't be doing this again if Barcelona is pulling this crap.........Hats off to Manchester United though....at least they played their stars for a while and tried to put on a show.

Players could have gone around the whole place not just one spot and just sign there:( just got two players autographs:(

A great opportunity to see a pre-season of two of the best soccer leagues of the world.

The game was great and the seats were incredible! What a great experience!

Event planners really suck at parking logistics. We got to near the FedFex Field parking lots (less than a mile) at 530 pm and it wasn't until 630 pm that we got to park the car. This is something that needs serious attention since its the same issue for all big sport events (parking at concerts is much more organized, get some tips from them)

Everything about the match was amazing. The two best teams in the world is hard to beat. The parking lot traffic is horrendous! Every event I've been to at FedEx Field has the same traffic jam.

simply awesome, totally worth the money I spent !!!!!!!!!!

This was once in a lifetime experience. What a great opportunity to see all the superstars playing in one field.

Great game, rare treat for USA to observe Premier League team without traveling abroad
