**Kansas City Current to Face Angel City Amidst Immigration Solidarity Stance**
**KANSAS CITY, MO (June 19, 2025)** – The Kansas City Current are set to host Angel City FC this Friday, June 20, 2025, at CPKC Stadium. Fans can stream the NWSL match live through a free trial to Amazon Prime.
The match comes amidst a backdrop of Angel City FC taking a strong stance on immigration rights. The Los Angeles-based team distributed “Immigrant City Football Club” T-shirts to fans at their recent game against the North Carolina Courage. Players and coaching staff wore the shirts as a symbol of solidarity with immigrants in Los Angeles, who they say have been targeted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. The back of the shirts read, “Los Angeles is for Everyone” in both English and Spanish, with an estimated 10,000 shirts distributed.
The team’s actions follow protests in Los Angeles against President Trump’s immigration policies, which have led to the deployment of National Guard members and Marine troops in the city.
Angel City had previously released a statement expressing concern over the situation. “We are heartbroken by the fear and uncertainty many in our Los Angeles community are feeling right now,” the statement read. “At Angel City, we believe in the power of belonging. We know that our city is stronger because of its diversity and the people and families who shape it, love it and call it home.”
The NWSL Players Association and the WNBA Players Association have also voiced their support for immigrant communities, stating, “We stand with all people seeking safety, dignity, and opportunity, no matter where they come from or where they hope to go.”
