Seattle to play Tampa Bay in Munich in the first-ever international game featuring two teams that lead their divisions

The Seattle Seahawks will take on Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Munich on Sunday for a Week 10 bout as the match will be the first-ever international game featuring two teams that lead their divisions in the NFL.

Tampa Bay’s quarterback Tom Brady is looking forward to the “one of the epic games”.

“We’re playing a great team in Seattle,” Brady said. “They’re first place in their division. We’re tied for first place in ours and it’s a big challenge because, you know, to fly across the ocean like that, new time zone, it’s a 9:30 [am] eastern kickoff. It’ll have its challenges.

“The weather’s gonna be a little cool, but we’re playing in this very, very cool arena (Allianz Arena) where Bayern Munich plays, kind of the country’s top soccer team, and it looks amazing in pictures.

“And look, I mean the chance to go across to another country, play a sport that I love, I have heard there’s 3 million ticket requests for 67,000 seats.

“So, the place is gonna be rocking and if it’s anything like what I see in those German Bundesliga games this is gonna be one of the epic games that we’ve ever played in. So I’m super excited.”
