The event could become only the third soccer match in Gillette Stadium’s 23-year history to surpass 64,000 fans in attendance, the last time coming in 2011 when the United States played Spain in an international friendly. The current record for highest attendance at a Revolution regular season match is 57,407, set on April 20, 1997. Since Gillette Stadium opened in 2002, the best attendance for a Revolution regular season match was 42,947 on Oct. 17, 2015.
