Ticket Information: U.S. Men's National Team vs. Mexico - February 11, 2009 at Columbus Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio
CHICAGO (Jan. 13, 2009) Tickets for the United States FIFA World Cup qualifier against Mexico in Columbus, Ohio, go on sale on Wednesday, Jan. 28, at 12 p.m. ET. The game kicks off at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Feb. 11, and will be televised live on ESPN2 HD and Univision.

The game marks the third-consecutive time that Columbus Crew Stadium hosts the final round home leg between the U.S. and Mexico. The match in Columbus is the first of five home qualifiers for the United States this year.

Tickets ranging in price levels from $48 to $250 go on sale to the public Wednesday, Jan. 28, at 12 p.m. ET through ussoccer.com, by phone at 800-745-3000 and at all Ticketmaster ticket centers throughout central Ohio (including Kroger), as well as the Crew Stadium ticket office (open Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Due to anticipated demand, tickets will be limited to four per purchase. Ultimate Fan Tickets (special VIP packages which include a premium ticket, a custom made official U.S. national team jersey with name and number, VIP access to the field before and after the game, and other unique benefits) are also available exclusively through ussoccer.com.

As a sponsor of U.S. Soccer, Visa® is pleased to offer all Visa cardholders access to an advance ticket sale for this match before the sale to the general public. This advance sale will take place from Tuesday, Jan. 27, at 12 p.m. ET until Wednesday, Jan. 28, at 8 a.m. ET at ussoccer.com. Tickets will be limited to four per purchase. Visa will be the only payment method accepted through the Visa presale and is the preferred card of U.S. Soccer. Terms and conditions apply.

We are very excited about returning to Columbus, said U.S. head coach Bob Bradley, who guided the U.S. to a 7-1-0 record through the first two rounds of FIFA World Cup qualifying. Our national team has enjoyed a great history there, and the team has always appreciated the fantastic support from the fans. We are looking forward to an incredible atmosphere as we continue the difficult task of qualifying for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

The Columbus Crew Stadium match will be the sixth World Cup qualifier hosted by the nine-year-old venue. The U.S. has a 3-0-2 record in qualifying and an unbeaten 4-0-3 all-time record in the stadium. In the first meeting on Feb. 28, 2001 dubbed the Guerra Fria (Cold War) because the game-time temperature topped out at 29 degrees - goals by Josh Wolff and Earnie Stewart paced the U.S. to a 2-0 victory. Four years later on Sept. 3, 2005, goals by Steve Ralston and DaMarcus Beasley earned the United States another 2-0 win and officially booked their place in the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.

The match on Feb. 11 will mark the 55th meeting between the USA and Mexico. The U.S. has dominated the series of late, collecting an 8-0-2 home record against Mexico since 2000. During that span, the USA has netted 17 goals, while Mexico has scored only three on American soil in this decade.

The U.S., along with Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico, and Trinidad & Tobago, is competing in the 10-game round-robin format through Oct. 14, 2009, with the top three teams automatically advancing to the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. The fourth-place team will compete in a two-game playoff to be held Nov. 14/18 against the fifth-place finisher in South American qualifying.

The U.S. Mens National Team will kick off a busy 2009 schedule when they face Sweden on Saturday, Jan. 24, at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif. Kickoff for the USAs only tune-up match prior to the start of final round qualifying is set for at 5:30 p.m. PT, and the match will be broadcast live on Fox Soccer Channel and Galavision. Fans can also follow the game live via ussoccer.coms MatchTracker.

USA vs Mexico is suppose to be a great rivalry. I was reading that when the would have these games in a city anywhere near the boarder there would always be more Mexican fans. Thats probaby why this game is in Columbus. I know from what I've seen of Mexico, they aren't as good as they use to be.

I've never been to a Soccer game before. I hope buying tickets for soccer games are easier than football and baseball.

Krist the soccer game (s) I ever went to was back in the late '70's / early '80's when the Cleveland Force played in the indoor soccer league. (MISL).

Hardly anything compares to the EPL, but most of the World Cup Qualifier Games I've seen on TV have been pretty good so far.

They got better in the late '90's before the league went belly up.
San Diego was the league's Dynasty.

You want to go to an outdoor soccer game in Ohio on FEBRUARY 11?

From the many different things I learned about Costa Rica, I predict that Costa Rica won't go far in the round-robins.

You'de be surprised, Costa Rica made the World Cup the last two times, but thats probably cause other than USA and Mexico there isnt much competition. 

Feb 11 is going to be a great day, I can already feel it.

Yes, but they've not beat Mexico in years, I can't remember just how many years but my son knows. Maybe they've never beat Mexico.

crash.gifWhy does Ticketmaster charge a convenience fee of $6.50 per ticket just to order online.  I fell like I'm being had, since its more convenient just to go to Kroger and buy them there. Knowing my luck if I wait till tomorrow they'll be all sold out and I'll end up having to watch the game from the comfort of my own home. Plus they probably still charge some extra BS fee if you pick them up at Kroger.

What a difference a day makes. Looks like the ticket prices have doubled. No soccer game for this cheapskate.

Procrastinater!  Cheapskate, too.

On the bright side, you won't be freezing at an outdoor soccer game on February 11 when the temperature probably won't be anywhere close to a balmy 58 degrees.
