World Cup 2018: Where to watch games in San Diego

The United States didn’t qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, but that doesn’t mean people across the country aren’t excited to support other countries or watch the amazing soccer that is on tap.

That’s particularly true in San Diego County where many local bars and restaurants are opening up early to offer a place for fans to get in on the action. Groups like House of Panama are hosting country-specific watch parties (details here) and SoccerCity SD is throwing an outdoor watch party for the championship game (details here).

Here is a longer list of bars and restaurants wefound that will be showing either single games, games specific to certain teams or every game.
