The Kansas City Chargers and Los Angeles opened their season in São Paulo, Brazil, on Friday night in what many believed would be an exciting confrontation of the AFC West.
But the chargers’ fans are already in arms over this divisional fight after seeing photos of the field in neo chemistry sand.
This is considered a game at Chargers’ house despite the neutral location, and the logo and the name of the Chiefs are in one of the final areas.

During the opening game of Brazil last season between the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers, the final areas were only painted with the name and colors of the Eagles. But Kay Adams, the host of the “Up & Adams, published a photo of the stadium field, and the chargers’ fans were not happy to see the name of their division rival.
“The bosses who have their own final zone for a game at the Chargers’ house” are absurd, “said an X user about the image of Adams.

As a reference, this is how the field was seen in São Paulo during the Eagles-Packers game last year.
“Did the NFL forget that the chargers are the local team?” Another fan of the Chargers asked in X. “Final zone of the Chiefs for what?”
While some chargers’ fans are becoming ballistic, other teams will have to get used to this advance in the NFL international games.

The new protocol is to have the name of each team in both final areas during the seven international games in 2025.
“New for this year, the logos and brands of both teams will appear in their respective final areas of all NFL international games,” NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said The Atlético. “It is a fun element to further improve the atmosphere as a great event and create a special appearance for international games.”
The next international game will be in week 4 between the Minnesota Vikings and the Pittsburgh Steelers in Dublin, Ireland. Then, London will be the host of three NFL games in weeks 5-7, followed by a confrontation of week 10 in Berlin, Germany, and the final game abroad in Madrid, Spain, in week 11.
So, although each game will have a team at home and outside, both teams will be represented in the field.

However, it is difficult for the chargers, considering that Sofi Stadium will not receive the Chiefs this regular season. The next time these two teams meet after Friday night will be on December 14 at Kansas City.
