Sunday was a big day for English club Chelsea. Captain John Terry confirmed he was staying at Chelsea, spurning an offer from Manchester City, and the Blues clinched the World Football Challenge
with a 2-0 win over Mexico's Club America before 57,229 fans at Jerry World --
Jerry Jones' new Dallas Cowboys Stadium dubbed a stadium like no other in the
world by Chelsea star
Andriy Shevchenko.
Franco DiSanto and
Florent
Malouda scored in a two-minute span in the second half to give Chelsea the win.
The game was marred by a thunderstorm that damaged the "SportsCenter" set of ESPN Deportes outside
the stadium.
The crowd gave Chelsea an average of 68,736 fans for its four-game tour -- almost as large as the average of 67,874 for Manchester United's 2003 tour.
