International Champions Cup, Tournament Exhibition | Sport Betting | Online Sport Betting

TA888 - Test match of Chivas Guadalajara vs Barcelona in 2011, the splash of Florida sun, plus the presence of 70,800 spectators at Sun Life Stadium stimulated the emergence of a brilliant idea in the head of Stephen Ross. The sport betting idea was realized two years ago in the form of International Champions Cup. Barcelona was then shockingly slaughtered 1-4 by Chivas in an event titled World Football Challenge. "I'm not surprised by Chivas performance. Mexican football is very dynamic and sport betting entertaining, "said Barca coach at that time, Pep Guardiola. In contrast to Guardiola, Ross looked unnerved by the quality of the game and the incredible enthusiasm shown by the sport betting fans. Ross, via Relevent Sports, then purchased Creative Arts Agency, operator of World Football Challenge in 2012.

"I see all the matches labeled trials. I think it's not a sport and Americans will not see it as a friendly match. Therefore, why not make tournament? "Ross said. Then was born an advanced version of World Football Challenge in 2013 with the name International Champions Cup (ICC). The name may change but the basic idea remains the same, which creates competitive trials followed by established European and world teams. Ross wanted to get rid of the notion that the exhibition party is just a heating event for players. Therefore, the trophy raised in order to motivate the participating teams and revive the aura of competition. With a more classy container, the contestants' teams are also playing seriously. Ross also can freely "sell" the ICC. Tickets feels deserved labeled higher prices than access to enter the exhibition game in general.

In fact, the average online sport betting ticket price has increased by 3 to 4 percent per year. The sale of broadcasting rights is also easier. Until 2015, Relevent Sports said to have cooperated with a television channel of 169 countries! Reflecting from the phenomenon earlier, Ross arguably successfully change the stigma of people who been considered the trial as a party boring. The most online sport betting valid evidence is presence of 109,318 pairs of eyes at the Michigan Stadium to witness the clash of Manchester United vs. Real Madrid in 2014 edition. The duel still holds the record for the football match that attended by the most audiences in the United States. Not just held on American, the ICC has now expanded into other continents. No wonder if the number of online sport betting spectators was always up from year to year. In the 2017 edition, the ICC staged in the United States, China and Singapore.
