In a bit of a surprise turn of events, Chattanooga Football Club fans will have one more opportunity to see the boys in blue at home this season.

And to say it’s a big game would be an understatement.

CFC will face the New York Cosmos B on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. for the National Premier Soccer League Championship. Tickets are $10 in advance or $12 at the gate.

This past Saturday night, CFC defeated Indiana Fire 3-0 in front of a record home crowd of 9,236.

Despite NY Cosmos B having home-field advantage based on standings, NPSL officials decided that Finley Stadium’s Davenport Field would be the best location for several reasons, according to CFC board member Tim Kelly.

“In a league where most teams enjoy the regular support of a few hundred fans, our fanbase here in Chattanooga is envied,” Kelly said. “And our partnership with Finley Stadium ensures a great experience for fans and players alike. Teams want to play here.”

This will be CFC’s second consecutive appearance in the national championship game and their third overall appearance.

But it won’t be easy. According to a release from CFC officials, NY Cosmos B is undefeated in league play this year, with 49 goals against opponents. Even better is their defense; the team only allowed seven goals in the regular season.

Oddly, the NY Cosmos B acquired eight-time NBA All-Star Steve Nash at the midpoint of the season-although it is unclear whether he will play with the team on Saturday.
