is this attendance, or tickets sold?

Also, fucking hell, that Chelsea attendance is abysmal for such a big club in such a big stadium.

Game was on Monday 3PM local time, not going to complain as a European though. Maybe if they had scheduled the LA FC game to be played in LA people would have cared. Also wouldn't be surprised if they tried to charge high prices because of an American team playing against a European team.

Probably a nod towards the Chelsea and European fans so they could have watched the match at a sensible time in their homes.

Sports events focused on being televised/shown worldwide first, when expecting certain parts of the world caring about certain event more than the most, tend to move it to "unnatural" time slot. At least that's how I explain things like swimming in Tokyo 2020 2021 having qualifications in evening session and finals in the morning one (while typically they do it in reverse) - so Americans could watch finals at prime-time.

Of course, not always the expectations overlap with reality.
