Messi effect: MLS hits home run with record-breaking attendance

Major League Soccer (MLS) has shattered its regular-season attendance report, surpassing 11 million followers.

With 16 matches left within the common season, MLS has already eclipsed final 12 months’s report of 10,900,804.

Announcing the report on Monday, the league credited the latest arrivals of worldwide superstars similar to Inter Miami’s Argentinian star ahead Lionel Messi and the creation of extra distinctive, fan-friendly ticket packages as key drivers of the continued development.

The league is at present averaging 23,240 followers per recreation.

Boosting that common had been crowds of 72,610 to see Messi and Miami play Sporting Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium on April 13, and the July 4 crowd of 70,076 on the Rose Bowl for the El Trafico conflict between LAFC and the LA Galaxy.
