    It was in the year 1885, when the first recorded indoor soccer match was played. The match was played between Western Football Association of Ontario and the O.N.T of Newark and was played in the Newark Roller Skating Rink. The series that took place was a part of a challenge cup that included both the outdoor and the indoor games. The game was played under lights and started at 9 O' clock at night. The team from Canada won each of the games that were played.
