As Seattle Sounders FC looks toward its first match of the FIFA Club World Cup this Saturday, February 4, the club is sharing the various ways to take in the match and support the Rave Green in a major moment of team history. Additionally, Sounders FC reminds fans and media that FIFA has adjusted Saturday’s kickoff time to 9:00 a.m. PT, having previously been announced as 9:30 a.m. PT.

Seattle is the first-ever MLS club to take part in the prestigious tournament, having qualified after claiming the Concacaf Champions League title last May. The Rave Green face Egyptian side Al Ahly SC on Saturday, and the stakes are high: with a victory, Sounders FC would advance to play Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid on February 8.

WATCH PARTY

For those local to Seattle wishing to take in the big game amongst other likeminded soccer fans, Sounders FC’s official FIFA Club World Cup watch party is taking place at the Seattle Center Armory (305 Harrison Street, Seattle, WA 98109). The event is free and open to the public, but fans are encouraged to RSVP in advance here. Entry is provided on a first-come, first-served basis beginning at 8:00 a.m. PT and continuing until The Armory reaches capacity. 

A range of family-friendly pre-match entertainment is planned, along with beloved Sounders FC matchday traditions including a performance by SoundWave, Boom Boom Clap and the announcement of starting lineups.

More information regarding Sounders FC’s official watch party can be found at SoundersFC.com/CWC-Watch-Party.

TELEVISION

For audiences in the Seattle-Tacoma market, Sounders FC’s proud partner FOX 13 Seattle is ensuring that fans have an over-the-air option for watching the game locally. Fans can tune-in on FOX 13+ (KZJO, cable 10 / channel 22 OTA) to catch all the action. Seattle University Men’s Soccer Head Coach and Sounders FC radio broadcaster Pete Fewing is joining FOX 13 to help provide halftime analysis on Saturday.

Outside of FOX 13+’s broadcast area, the match is being carried live nationally on FS2 and FOX Deportes, as well as streaming on the FOX Sports app.
