dates of the matches: the semifinals will be played on the June 7,
2023 and the finals on June 8, 2023.
The finals of the First Edition, held in the famous Italian
beach town of Rimini on the Adriatic coast in June 2022, recorded
significant numbers, both in terms of attendance at the stadium
(several thousand) and online (over 300,000 unique views and
400,000 social media posts).
“After the great success of last year's finals in Rimini, we
thought that this year to add an even more prestigious setting. The
opportunity of playing the FENIX Trophy final at San Siro,
permanently in the "Top 10" ranking of the most beautiful football
stadiums in the world, and already home to several editions of the
Champions League final, including 2016 between Real Madrid and
Atletico Madrid, is the ideal stage for the epilogue of an
increasingly international tournament,” said Brera Holdings’ CEO,
Sergio Scalpelli.
The group stage that decides the four finalists - the three
group winners and the best runner-up - is about to complete with
the last matches scheduled between April and May 2023. To date, the
first qualified team is titleholder "FC United of Manchester," the
club that arose as a response to the purchase of Manchester United
by the American Glazer family in May 2005, with the motto "Our
club, our rules” and a top fanbase.

streaming through the tournament’s official YouTube channel. See
