Located in Foxborough, roughly 30 miles south of Boston, the longest commute on this list. Opened in 2002, home of the Patriots (Brady-era dynasty's home turf) and the New England Revolution. The MBTA Commuter Rail runs event-only service direct from South Station; otherwise it is car-only, which means traffic on Route 1 is the actual planning constraint. Patriot Place, an adjacent shopping and entertainment complex, makes a useful kill-time spot before kickoff. Open-air bowl, exposed to whatever New England weather decides to bring that day.

Transit: MBTA Commuter Rail to Foxboro (event service only)

Boston, USA

Gillette Stadium sits in Foxborough, 30 miles south of central Boston, the longest stadium-to-city commute in the tournament. MBTA Commuter Rail event service runs from South Station on match days, the only practical way in without a car. Boston itself is the most walkable major US city, dense enough that almost anything (the Freedom Trail, Harvard Square across the river in Cambridge, the North End for Italian food, Fenway, Beacon Hill) is reachable on foot or one T stop away. The Irish-American population (the highest in the US) gives Ireland-flavored matches a serious local crowd. June weather is mild by US summer standards, an actual relief after Houston or Dallas.
