The Manchester United will take on the Kansas City Wizards at 5 p.m. Sunday in an exhibition game and Kansas City fans will get their first look at changes to the New Arrowhead Stadium.

The Wizards welcome the United to town as one of the most popular sports teams in the world. The team is playing a series of exhibition games in North America.

Some of the Wizards are considering their shot against Man U as a huge opportunity.

"There's going to be a lot of people there, like you said, and I want the fans and everybody to have a good time," Wizards forward Teal Bunbury said. "I'm going in there trying to win, regardless of who it is, that's always my mentality."

Fellow Wizards forward Kei Kamara echoed much of what Bunbury said.

"They have some some of the greatest players" Kamara said. "But just like Teal said, it's all about our fans and the people of KC. As long as they're having fun at the game, that's what we really want to go out there to do."

The Manchester United will arrived in Kansas City Saturday afternoon and kickoff against the Wizards is set for 5 p.m. Sunday at the newly renovated Arrowhead Stadium. The Kansas City Chiefs have completed the two-year, $375 million project and the soccer fans will be the first to get a look at the finished product.

Some of the big upgrades fans will see is more room to move around, more restrooms, more bars and more concession facilities. There are also more places to get away from the heat of cold now.

With all the changes, there's also a blast from the past in the Chief's Hall of Honor. The changes are something Chief's Chairman Clark Hunt said is a place that would make his father, Lamar Hunt, proud.

Tickets for the game are still available at KCWizards.com or Ticketmaster.com.
