On a beautiful night in packed Kenan Stadium, Chelsea puts on a show

Posted Jul 20, 2023
Football in a packed Kenan Stadium is nothing new. But when 50,596 fans filled the stadium Wednesday it was anything but normal, and a huge night for soccer fans. With the turf traded for temporary natural grass, the football was English-style and played in July heat. UNC’s role was that of a gracious host, renting out the stadium to FC Series promoters.
