Watch Real Madrid Vs. AS Roma Live Stream: International Champions Cup, Start Time, Watch Live Online
Two of Europe’s top clubs, UEFA Champions League titlists Real Madrid and seimfinalists AS Roma, wind up their preseason warm-up tours of the United States on Tuesday, meeting for one last International Champions Cup match on Tuesday night at the same stadium that, just two nights later, will host the New York Giants first preseason NFL football clash, MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, from which the final ICC game for both European teams will live stream. But according to Real Sport, both sides will still be without some key players.
Sergio Ramos is scheduled to make his return to the Real Madrid starting XI, according to Real Sport, as new Manager Julen Lopetegui, fresh off a two-year stint helming the Spanish national team, is expected to field a strong lineup that will likely also feature French World Cup star Karim Benzema and Welsh international Gareth Bale.
But Lopetgui will now have a mere 10 days to get his club ready before they officially open their 2018/2019 campaign by facing their crosstown rivals Atletico Madrid, winners of the 2017/2018 UEFA Europa League, in the UEFA Super Cup — the traditional opening game of Europe’s international club championship season. In 43 playings of the UEFA Super Cup, the August 15 match in Estonia’s capital of Tallinn will be the first in which both sides hail from the same city.
To find out how to watch a live stream of Saturday’s Real Madrid vs. AS Roma International Champions Cup match, see the streaming information at the bottom of this article. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time at 82,500-seat MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on Tuesday, August 7. In the Pacific Time Zone that start time will be 5 p.m.
In the United Kingdom, the game gets underway at 1 a.m. British Summer Time on Wednesday, August 8.
Both teams are looking at a campaign without their top player, however, according to Goal.com. Real Madrid saw perhaps the world’s best player, Cristiano Ronaldo, move to Italy where he takes his position with Juventus — who have won seven straight Serie A titles — while Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson has exited Roma for northwest England, where he will mind the net for Real Madrid’s 2018 UEFA Champions League Final opponents, Liverpool.
In their domestic leagues, both sides will be hoping to find a combination of players that will move them up on the table. Los Blancos finished third on the La Liga table last season, while Roma also placed third in Serie A.
