The South Grandstand Lower will be the supporters section, please be prepared for singing, jumping, and views partially blocked by tifo if purchasing tickets in this area.
Whats a testimonial? The tradition of testimonials started in an era of sports during which player compensation was very minimal. When a player retired, the club would host a friendly match either between teams comprised of former teammates and friends of the player being honored. The proceeds of the match are given to the player, as a thank you for their service and to better prepare them for life after soccer.
