Sporting KC typically plays Major League Soccer games at the 18,500 capacity Children’s Mercy Park.

With the Argentina superstar in town, however, the game was moved to the  home of the city’s NFL team.

Around 70,000 fans are expected to turn out to see Inter Miami’s visit, with Tata Martino fielding all his big stars for the MLS game.

Messi, Suarez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets were all named in Miami’s starting lineup as the team looks to secure a first win in nearly a month.
