"25,000-capacity stadium"

Even Group of 5 college football stadiums are larger than that. And we're supposed to think the rest of the world thinks soccer is a big deal.

Someone is paying him $200,000,000 per year. I think that is a big deal.

Over 3 billion watched the World Cup Final.
You can hate soccer, but it is the most popular sport on Earth.

Well, the Maracana stadium in Brazil used to hold 200,000, and was SRO during the 1950 final.

Admittedly, 25,000 is kinda small for a soccer stadium.
