On the other side, NJ/NY Gotham FC is a key player in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), representing the metropolitan areas of New Jersey and New York. Originally founded as Sky Blue FC in 2008, the club rebranded in 2021 to Gotham FC, bringing new energy and a modern identity to the team. With a roster of talented international players and homegrown stars, Gotham FC has established itself as a fierce competitor in the NWSL. The team plays its home games at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, New Jersey, which holds 25,000 spectators and offers one of the most electric atmospheres for soccer in the United States.

This game between Gotham FC and CF Monterrey Femenil is part of the CONCACAF Women’s Champion Cup, an annual competition that brings together top women’s soccer teams from North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. CONCACAF, which stands for the Confederation of North, Central America, and Caribbean Association Football, oversees international competitions in the region and works to grow the sport at all levels. The CONCACAF Women’s Champion Cup is designed to crown the best club team in the region and promote the development of women’s soccer.

With the game expected to draw large crowds, the Harrison Police Department will likely issue a Traffic and Parking Bulletin to help manage the flow of fans in and around Red Bull Arena. Local residents are impacted during Red Bull Arena events.
