Charlotte FC Anticipates Record-Breaking Crowd For Home Debut Against Chicharito's Galaxy
LOS ANGELES - Charlotte FC will play their first ever home game on Saturday and opponents LA Galaxy know they will have to weather a storm of excitement pouring out from the team's supporters.
Charlotte, who joined MLS as its 28th team this season, are expected to draw an MLS record 75,000 supporters to Bank of America Stadium for their highly-anticipated home debut.
While it is "fantastic" for the league that it is expanding into new markets, it presents problems for the visitors, LA Galaxy coach Greg Vanney said.
