Arsenal and Manchester City will play a match in Beijing's 'Birds Nest' Olympic Stadium on the day that London welcomes the world for the 2012 Olympic Games. The Premier League rivals said their first teams would play a one-off match for the inaugural 'China Cup' on July 27, 2012, with a local kick-off time of 2000 (1200 GMT), six-and-a-half hours before the London opening ceremony begins. The stadium, built for the 2008 Olympics, hosted the Italian Super Cup between AC Milan and city rivals Inter in front of more than 70,000 local fans last August, 2011. *
