Tickets for the International Champions Cup game between Real Madrid and Manchester United that will be played in Michigan this summer have sold out on the first day of general sale, with more than 100,000 tickets sold.

The August 2nd game in Ann Arbor is on course to break the previous U.S. record for a single game attendance, which was 101,799 for the 1984 Olympic Gold Medal match between Brazil and France at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles. Michigan Stadium, nicknamed “The Big House,” has an official capacity of 109,901.
