Matchday
We are building the home of interactive entertainment for 5 billion soccer fans.
Our mission is to connect soccer's 5 billion fans. We have secured world class IP, including 65K officially licensed soccer players from FIFPRO, the global player union. Our first game is Matchday Champions, the only casual soccer game on the market. The game is charting app stores in Europe, with top retention and monetization metrics in key cohorts. Champions is the first step in achieving our vision of building the Roblox for soccer. We are a team of seasoned founders (combined exits > $1B), gaming veterans (EA, King, Glu), and Leo Messi. https://m.day/get-champions
