One of the modern staples of the summer in the United States is friendlies between big foreign soccer clubs. This week the citizens of Dallas were treated to Barcelona vs Juventus at the Cotton Bowl.
Matt Visinsky was on hand to bring us some photos. I picked a handful of the shoots he brought back for your enjoyment in this space. You can find more of his pics from this game here. He’s also on Instagram.

I wonder how much it would’ve cost to switch it to a more soccer specific stadium way back when ? It seems like a waste of space these days. The Texas/ OU game will eventually move to Jerry world. Looks like a nice attendance for a weekday game in 100+ degree weather. Goes to show you that the fans are here and will come if the product is good enough.
