PHOENIX — It's a rematch 17 years in the making.
The Arizona Cardinals announced Wednesday that the team will play the San Francisco 49ers at Estadio Azteca in Mexico on Monday Night Football on November 21.
Kickoff will be at 7:15 p.m. in Mexico City (6:15 p.m. Arizona time).
The full NFL schedule has yet to be released but we now know who and where the Cardinals will be playing in Week 11.
In 2005, Arizona became the first team to win a regular-season game outside of the United States when they defeated the 49ers 31-14 in a game at Estadio Azteca.
