Detroit City FC is returning to Keyworth Stadium one last time in 2016.
The ‘Old Boys’ of Detroit City will lace up their boots for a special Homecoming friendly match on Saturday, October 8. Kickoff is at 7 PM ET.
City will host Mundo Latino (Latino All-Stars), the team DCFC faced in its inaugural match as a club in 2012.
The two teams met at Historic Fort Wayne on May 5, 2012, when Detroit recorded its first-ever win as a team, beating Mundo Latino, 3-1.
Legends of City’s past will once again don Rouge + Gold in the special Homecoming match presented by Metro Detroit Chevy Dealers. DCFC Old Boys like 2013 Black Arrow MVP Zach Myers, former captain Josh Rogers, goalkeeper Bret Mollon, Zeke Harris, Knox Cameron and more will be in action against Mundo Latino.
Supporters are encouraged to purchase tickets ahead of time. Tickets are $7 online and $10 at the gate on matchday.
The 2016 season marked an incredible year of achievements for Le Rouge. After renovating 80-year-old Keyworth Stadium through its historic community investment campaign, City saw a record 7,410 supporters at its first match at its new home on May 20, 2016. A week later, the club hosted fan-owned FC United of Manchester in front of more than 6,200 supporters.
DCFC also opened its first brick and mortar club shop at 2750 Yemans Street in Hamtramck. In August, the club announced it distributed $107,000 in revenue sharing checks to its investors.
