The USA Cup is also part of FC Bayern Munich’s preseason Audi Summer Tour, which includes a stop in Washington, D.C. on July 20 to play D.C. United.
This will be the clubs’ second meeting on American soil, with City defeating Bayern 3-2 in an International Champions Cup match at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium in July 2018.
Over the last decade, Lambeau Field, the NFL’s longest-tenured stadium, has hosted a variety of non-Packers events, including concerts and a college football game.
