More recently , MLS teams have used NFL and CFL stadiums as either full-time home fields ( much less so now , due to the league 's insistence on soccer-specific stadiums ) or for special event games ; in reverse , in at least one case , an NFL team ( the Los Angeles Chargers ) is using a soccer-specific MLS stadium on a temporary basis from 2017 to 2019 while a larger stadium is built for them .
The Los Angeles Chargers will use a soccer-specific MLS stadium for less than three years commencing 2017 .
