CHICAGO — A Navy Pier watch party was held for U.S. soccer fans excited for their match against England Friday in the World Cup.
More than 1,700 fans of soccer showed up on Black Friday to view the game in the ballroom at Navy Pier.
Team USA has two draws to its name after playing England Friday. The United States played Wales to a 1-1 tie and followed that up with a scoreless draw, 0-0, against the heavily-favored Brits.
“We’re excited to see USA we’ve been waiting a long time,” Barbara Calabrese. “Eight years since USA has been in the World Cup, so we can’t wait.”
