Going to Gillette for Inter Miami CF Revolution match? MBTA offering $10 roundtrip ticket

If you're a soccer fan, you know how big a deal the game is between Inter Miami CF and New England Revolution on Saturday, April 27.

It's a chance to see one of the greatest soccer players of all time, Lionel Messi, without having to leave New England. And as the 2022 World Cup Champion has a relatively short contract with the team, it could be a relatively rare event.

Which is why, the sellout match is expected to set a new single-game attendance record at Gillette Stadium for the Revolution.

And it's why if you're one of the people with tickets to the big game, you might want to start thinking about how you're going to get there.

It's a recipe for a traffic jam. Fortunately, the MBTA Commuter Rail and Keolis have presented another option.
