Arsenal's Women's Super League Game Expected to Break Attendance Record

Arsenal's Women's Super League game against Manchester United this weekend is expected to break the league's attendance record. The clash at the Emirates Stadium is a sell-out, with over 60,000 tickets and all hospitality packages sold. This surpasses Arsenal's previous record of 59,042, set in December against Chelsea. Arsenal Chief Executive Vinai Venkatesham expressed gratitude for the unwavering support of the club's fans and the hard work of everyone involved. This will be the second time the stadium has sold out for a women's game, following last season's Women's Champions League semi-final second leg against VfL Wolfsburg, which drew a crowd of 60,063. In contrast, when Arsenal won the Champions League in 2007, only 3,467 people attended the second leg of the final. The current record attendance for a women's club game in England was set at last year's FA Cup final, where 77,390 people watched Chelsea defeat Manchester United at Wembley Stadium.
