The Edmonton Journal is reporting that FC Edmonton took part in a last-minute exhibition game on Thursday (August 29th) against what may be their strangest opponent of the year: Iron Maiden. The British heavy metal band was in town to perform at Rogers Place on Friday, and as a warm-up they decided to reach out to the local professional soccer team to put together a friendly match.
The FC Edmonton side was made up of members of the youth squad, team employees and a few lucky fans while the Iron Maiden squad was made up of the band’s bassist Steve Harris, his son and tour support staff.
Team Iron Maiden ended up taking the match with a score of 7-3.
