DENVER — Football fans who don’t like American football will have the chance to enjoy “the beautiful game” without all that boring talk about TDs, huddles, punts and fumbles at Empower Field at Mile High later this spring.
Denver was one of five cities selected on the annual U.S. Tour, joining Chicago; College Station, Texas; Pasadena, Calif.; and Arlington, Texas. The first three games, including the one happening in Denver, will serve as a preview to the 2024 CONMEBOL Copa America tournament, and will feature Mexico, Bolivia, Uruguay and Brazil. The final two games of the tour include matches against New Zealand and Canada.
