Colombia vs. Jordan at Snapdragon Stadium on Sunday, June 7 at 4:00 PM — a "Countdown to '26" international friendly with a commemorative scarf add-on.
Event Overview
Snapdragon Stadium hosts Colombia vs. Jordan on Sunday, June 7, 2026 at 4:00 PM — the second of two "Countdown to '26" international friendlies in Mission Valley this weekend, organized by San Diego FC ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Both teams qualified for the 2026 World Cup, which kicks off June 11. Colombia brings one of the most passionate fan bases in international soccer, and Jordan — making their first-ever World Cup appearance — is the underdog story you'll be hearing about all summer. A commemorative scarf add-on is available for fans who want a piece of the moment.

Why This Match Matters
Two storylines worth watching:
- Colombia is one of South America's strongest sides, with a deep midfield, technical attacking play, and a fan base that travels in huge numbers. Expect a packed Colombian contingent at Snapdragon turning the stadium into a yellow-clad sea — these are the loudest international friendly crowds you'll see anywhere
- Jordan is making their first-ever World Cup appearance in 2026, having qualified through Asian qualifying. They're the kind of underdog team that captures neutral fans' attention quickly — this is your chance to see them before the rest of the world does
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is co-hosted by the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, with 48 teams (up from 32) — and matches like this are San Diego's way of being part of the build-up. SDFC's vision is to position the city as a soccer hub, and the "Countdown to '26" series is a direct play at that.
