Yes I know there is the Arsenal thread, but I feel that this desveres it's own thread and this was announced ages ago but with it nearing to a start I decieded now would be the perfect time to create the thread.
The Emirates Stadium will see New York Red Bulls, PSG and Boca Juniors will join Arsenal in the yearly Emirates Cup. The Emirates Cup will be played over 2 days with 2 games per day.
The fixtures:
Day One:
Date Kick-off Match Saturday, July 30 2pm New York Red Bulls v Paris Saint-Germain Saturday, July 30 4.20pm Arsenal v Boca Juniors
Day Two:
Date Kick-off Match Sunday, July 31 2pm Boca Juniors v Paris Saint-Germain Sunday, July 31 4.20pm Arsenal v New York Red Bulls
How are teams awarded points?:
Well it is simaler to any other league with 3 points for a win and 1 point for a draw. But for every goal the team scores they get 1 extra point so even if a team loses 2-1 they will be awarded 1 point.
The History:
This years Emirates Cup will be the 5th time the competiton has been contested. The 1st Emirates Cup was hosted in 2007. For PSG this will be there 3rd time taking part. The past 2 years they have been involed were 2007 and 2009.
Past Winners:
2007-Arsenal
2008-Hamburg
2009-Arsenal
2010-Arsenal
2011-?????
So who's going this year and what day? I am going on the Sunday like me and my Dad have always done.
