NFL Game London

For the second time in sports history, an American football game will take place as part of the NFL in London. With American football on the rise in the UK, it's no surprise that the popularity of the sport sees the Americans bringing their hard hitting game to the UK.

But can the venue live up to the hype? In this case, the answer is yes. The NFL game London venue is once more none other than Wembley Stadium, one of the largest sporting grounds in the UK. Not only was the American football match of October the first of its kind in the UK, but the second will see the start of a series of American football games in the UK over the next three years. The second in a new series of international regular season games in London, this National Football League match is destined to be just as big as the previous game between the Dolphins and the Giants.

London's sporting achievements have taken a turn for the better in recent times, with the start of the Tour de France in 2007 and the Olympic bid both having been successful. A must for NFL fans throughout the UK, when it comes to the NFL game London audiences will be treated to the sight of the New Orlean Saints and the San Diego Chargers playing another important fixture on the sporting calendar - one that will go down in history.

National fans of the sport are also keen to see the game contintue to be played outside its native waters, as a crowd of 81,176 saw the New York Giants beat the Miami Dolphins in the capital for the first NFL game London has ever hosted.

The NFL Super Bowl is one of the biggest sports days in America, making the NFL match in London another major coup for the city. This is the chance for Londoners to get on board with another sport that could become increasingly popular in the city over the next decade.

There are already several London American football teams, including the London Olympians who recently pushed a recruitment drive in the city, indicating that there are many men out there who not only watch the game, but want to play it too.

Unprecedented interest saw ticket requests for the 2007 NFL match reaching over half a million within 72 hours of them going on sale. When it comes to tickets for the 2008 NFL game London residents will have to be organised and get in quick if last year's match was anything to go by.
