Versus Systems Powered At-Home and In-Stadium Fan Experience at 2021 MLS All-Star Skills Challenge
25 August 2021 - 9:00PM
Versus Systems Inc. (“Versus” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: VS)
announced today that the company powered at-home and in-stadium fan
engagement for the 2021 MLS All-Star Skills Challenge presented by
AT&T 5G on Tuesday, August 24, 2021, at Banc of California
Stadium in Los Angeles. During the Skills Challenge, which took
place the night before the MLS All-Star Game, the top eight players
from MLS battled a team of eight LIGA MX stars in five different
field challenges that tested the players’ shooting, touch, cross
and volley, passing and crossbar skills.
The Skills Challenge aired in the U.S., Canada and Latin America
on top sports channels including FS1, TUDN (which accounts for 50%
of all soccer viewership in the US), and ESPN in Latin American
markets. Fans used a QR code promoted on screen to access Versus’s
XEO platform from their mobile devices to participate in the Fan
Poll as they supported their favorite MLS and LIGA MX players. The
fan experience at Banc of California Stadium included games such as
Skeeball and Soccer Shuffle.
“We are excited to have powered in-stadium engagement for the
2021 MLS Skills Challenge as fans got to watch some of soccer’s
biggest stars test their phenomenal ball skills. This event took
the growing MLS vs. LIGA MX rivalry to the next level. We’re
thrilled that we were able to demonstrate our world-class ability
to make these types of events more fun and engaging to fans of the
MLS and LIGA MX,” said Matthew Pierce, Founder and CEO of Versus
Systems.
