MIAMI (WSVN) – Thousands of fans attended the first Inter Miami home game at its new stadium, with the team hitting the field for the grand opening.
After years of planning and anticipation, Inter Miami opened the Nu Stadium to the immense excitement of local fans.
“Been waiting six years for this, and it’s something that we’ve been travelling, going travelling the way home. And now that we can call this a stadium that’s our home now, it’s something that’s special to us,” said Wesley, an Inter Miami fan. “We’re excited that we can finally have a stadium that we can call home.”
“See this new stadium that’s built, it’s insane,” said Veronica, another Inter Miami fan.
