THE Australian Football League (AFL) is bringing an in-season match to China for the first time with Port Adelaide taking on Gold Coast Suns at Jiangwan Stadium in Shanghais Yangpu District, on May 14.



This is an awesome chance for Shanghai football lovers to catch an exciting match, which is often held in wither Australia or New Zealand.

 


This isn’t just a one-off event, according to AFL, it plans to bring an official match each year to China until 2019, as well as a series of club activities like training camps, residential campus programs, and Chinese players recruitment. “This is so much more significant than just playing a game for premiership points on foreign soil. This is a landmark moment in the development of Australia’s sporting, cultural, political, economic and tourism ties with China” wrote AFL’s official website.
