LOS ANGELES

La prima partita dell'Inter al Mondiale per Club sarà quella contro la squadra messicana del Monterrey, il 17 giugno 2025 alle 18 ora di Los Angeles, quando in Italia saranno le 03:00 del mattino del 18 giugno.

Si giocherà al Rose Bowl Stadium Stadium di Pasadena, l'iconico impianto dalla capienza di oltre 92mila spettatori che ospitò, nel 1994, la finale dei Mondiali di calcio tra Italia e Brasile, con la vittoria dei verdeoro ai calci di rigore.

Non sarà la prima volta dell'Inter in campo a Los Angeles, e soprattutto non sarà la prima volta al Rose Bowl Stadium.

Nell'estate del 2009 l'Inter, in tournée negli Stati Uniti, affrontò il 17 luglio l'UCLA Bruins (squadra dell'Università della California) nel campus universitario: finì 2-2 (gol di Materazzi e Stankovic).

Il 22 luglio la partita amichevole a Pasadena contro il Chelsea: 0-2 con le reti di Drogba e Lampard su rigore)

SEATTLE

Sarà invece una prima volta per l'Inter a Seattle, dove al Lumen Field la squadra di Inzaghi affronterà Urawa Red Diamonds e River Plate.

Il Lumen Field è un impianto da 70mila spettatori che ospita la squadra dei Seattle Seahawks della NFL e i Seattle Sounders FC della Major League Soccer .
