The second set of matches will be played two days later on Sunday 26th July with Al Ahly playing FC Barcelona and Tottenham taking on Celtic. The winner of the tournament will be decided on a combined points and goals scored system.

The Wembley Cup has been developed to provide an exciting curtain-raiser to the new season and is a must-see event for football fans. The tournament will give clubs the opportunity to play competitive pre-season matches against top quality opposition at one of the world’s finest sporting venues.

The scoring
Each team will play two matches, with three points awarded for a win, one point for a draw and one point for any goals scored, encouraging attacking football. If the scores are still even, the winner will be decided on the most goals scored, then the least goals conceded and then fastest goal.
