Also maybe one or both of Brian Gutierrez and Sergio Oregel may be moving on to bigger leagues.

My guess is they scheduled it to not conflict with a potential Mariners World Series Game 7.

This was my first 🔥 match, got tickets close to the supporters to be near what looked to be a great energy at the ORL game. That was the most hateful, negative supporters section I’ve ever seen in person & can’t say I’d look to make the 6+ hour investment coming from MKE to do it again. Just gross.

And this also put event staff in a horrible spot too...as they are usually way understaffed and poorly trained by Monterrey

This is on the event staff. You can't and don't want other attendees having to police other's actions.

When its only the hardest of the hard-core, they know its not okay to call the opposing goalkeeper a gay slur.
