Walking into MetLife Stadium during the FIFA Club World Cup recently, Chelsea fans Walker Thoss, Nichllas Diehl and a man who identified himself as KS mentioned the relative ease with which they arrived at the semifinal match between Chelsea and Fluminense last week, but still expressed concern that the area won’t be ready when the World Cup comes to New York next year. MetLife Stadium will host eight games in next year’s World Cup, including the final, drawing some 80,000 fans to East Rutherford for the final alone. While the venue regularly hosts massive events, the potential influx of fans taking the train to the game rather than driving has some wondering whether the transit system can handle it.
