“Soccer in the U.S. – and specifically Major League Soccer – has done remarkable work to show how inclusive and welcoming our sport is to any and all fans,” FC Cincinnati President Jeff Berding said. “Soccer truly is a game for everyone – no matter your age, sex, ethnicity, race, religion, sexuality or ability. No matter who you are, or how you identify yourself, you’re welcome in MLS, and especially at FC Cincinnati.

“Through this campaign, we hope our fans show everyone how our game has impacted their city, their neighborhood and their family, and help us raise awareness of the welcoming and inclusive nature of our sport and our league, ” Berding added.

In addition to fans showing who their “Soccer is For” during the week on social media leading up to next Saturday’s game, 10,000 additional posters will be available at the Nippert Stadium gates for the New York game. Fans will be encouraged to fill out their own signs as they arrive.
