LOS ANGELES - Today, Angel City Football Club (ACFC) announced a friendly match against Liga MX club FC Juárez Femenil at BMO Stadium scheduled for Sunday, August 18 at 7:00 p.m. PT. The friendly, between two clubs who continue to cultivate an extensive international reach, will bring together two passionate and global fanbases who will be able to watch the match live globally on DAZN.

"We are excited to host FC Juárez and their fans later this summer as we look to continue to grow our game," said ACFC General Manager Angela Hucles Mangano. "As a team that is also breaking barriers as the only Liga MX Femenil team with a woman president, it is an extra special opportunity to shine a light on the ever-changing landscape of women's football."

The FC Juárez's roster includes five Southern California-native players including forward Destinney Duron from Los Angeles, goalkeeper Enya Hernández from West Covina, defender Annia Mejía from Fontana, and forward Jasmine Casarez and defender Janelly Farías, both from Moreno Valley.

"I'm very excited for our club to play against Angel City in LA," said FC Juárez Forward Casarez. "I think it will be a different challenge for us. A lot of the players there are very fast, strong and technical, but we also have those qualities, so it will be exciting to see our style of play against theirs."
