Paul Pogba, Roberto Carlos, and John Terry to Headline Dubai Legends Match

Football enthusiasts in Dubai can look forward to watch their favorite legends match in action in the King’s Cup match which is scheduled to be held on Monday November 30 at Al Maktoum Stadium the home to the UAE Pro League Al Nasr Football Club with legendary players including Paul Pogba,Roberto Carlos and John Terry.

This much anticipated charity match will be played by World cup winners UEFA Champions league medalists as well as league champions all for a noble cause. Some of the famous stars who have featured include; Edgar Davids, Marouane Fellaini, Michael Owen, and Paul Scholes.

An important addition to this game is the special shirt of the “King’s Guard” which Pogba and Carlos are wearing; this gives the player the opportunity to play 15 minutes of the first half and 15 minutes of the second half without receiving yellow cards, red cards, or going to the offside position. These players are allowed in the pitch in such a way that their team can have as many as 12 players in the pitch as opposed to the regular 11 players.

I can guarantee that football lovers from all corner of the city will be drawn to the event; especially since it is in support of the Al Jalila Foundation. Additional tickets information will be released shortly.

Event Details:

Date: Monday, November 30
Venue: Al Maktoum Stadium of Oud Metha District in Dubai
