Took us about an hour to go 2 miles to get into stadium parking. The stadium was maybe half full. We missed all the insiders events due to taking so long to get onto the stadium. So we bypassed the events so we could watch some warmups. We left what we thought would get us to the stadium before 5:30. Options for concessions was poor.
I went to the game with 7 other family and friends. We tailgated before the game. Beautiful weather and the interaction between all fans from both teams was great. The stadium was a great venue. Our seats were awesome. Most of the USA goals were on are end! The USA team is looking so good. They went through their growing pains with Pochettino but are seeing his ways and the players adjusting to it are playing better as individuals BUT most importantly as a very good team. The US is looking like a team ready to compete against the top teams. Very happy with the result and the way the team is going. Pochettino is not playing favorites and going with the players that are ready to play. I think the USA will do very well in the WC next Year.
Had a great time watching the men’s national soccer team beat Uruguay 5-1. Raymond James Stadium is very cool. The men’s team looked good. The weather was nice. Great night for soccer. We had lots of fun.
The cheapest tickets were $47 yet once we got there, the stadium was nearly empty. Rather than try to fill seats and create a fun atmosphere, the money grubbers only wanted to make as much money as they could. Really sad everyone in charge cares about money and not soccer.
Electric atmosphere with a country vs country friendly. Six goals scored doesn’t hurt the energy level at all! There should be more big games like this in the US and Tampa specifically with the crowd any Central and South American team can bring with the locals that already live here. Bring Brasil vs Argentina here or the flamingo and river plate teams to play each other like our NFL teams go to Europe to play. Build the sport of soccer here!!
Start to finish, a first class performance and event for US Soccer! Well done Tampa!
In general, me and some friends enjoyed the experience at the stadium. Only a few things that could have been better -Parking: even than the lots were empty, we were directed to park pretty far away when there was a lot of space closer to the gates - large screens on the stadium. Whoever was managing the cameras seemed didn’t have experience with soccer. He was following the plays too closely. Usually in soccer you show at least one quarter of the field to appreciate the players movements and kicks. Hope they get that fixed for future soccer matches.
US fans were lively all game and it was a beautiful night weatherwise. Was so happy to see my 8 yo son have so much fun!
Easy to park , easy to get into the stadium , wonderful atmosphere , and an exciting match to watch .
Great Team Performance! They had a great pregame set up. The in stadium camera coverage was terrible, no replays of key plays:(
