The Cosmos are coming to Coney Island
Legendary Soccer Club to Play Home Games at Cyclones’ MCU Park
The reigning North American Soccer League champion New York Cosmos are bringing their historic soccer franchise to Coney Island this spring.
The team announced Thursday morning that MCU Park, long-time home of the Brooklyn Cyclones, would host all 16 Cosmos regular-season home games, beginning with the 2017 season opener on April 1.
“When I took control of the club on January 10, our immediate priorities were to stabilize the NASL, re-hire the Cosmos’ front-office personnel and coaching staff, rebuild our team roster and relocate to a fan friendly venue within the five boroughs,” said Cosmos Chairman Rocco B. Commisso.
