Where is the match between PSG and the Saudi All-Star XI?

The Saudi Arabia sporting authorities are not dumb. Just mere hours after hosting the Italian Supercup final between Internazionale and AC Milan on Wednesday, they have staged another world-large event in the King Fahd Stadium.

The friendly between PSG and the Saudi All-Star XI will be played at that venue, with a capacity in excess of 68,750 seats and located in the KSA capital of Riyadh.

Not to be undone by their fellow Middle East partners, Qatar opened the doors of the Khalifa Stadium to supporters of the Parisian club so they could enter the arena and watch PSG train live on their Wednesday session.

Qatar might not be hosting the game, but the nation already earned a fair share of attention one day before the showdown.
