Movie Night and More
After the tension of the World Cup, this week brings some fun and relaxing soccer and one great soccer movie. Thursday kicks off our Movie Night series with a New York Cosmos documentary on the roof. Before that, an All-Star game with great local ties that's all about cross-border bragging rights and we’ve got the Hollywood-owned club from the lower leagues taking on a true top English side. Later in the week we get a Saturday night with Liga MX stacked three deep and both Chicago sides playing on the same day.
We’ve certainly got a screen with your name on it.
