2026 World Cup: Morocco-Brazil Clash Already Sold Out!

On FIFA’s official ticketing platform, seventeen group stage matches are already completely sold out. Among them is the duel between Morocco and Brazil, scheduled for New York/New Jersey. This prestigious fixture joins the opening match between Mexico and South Africa, as well as the face-off between the United States and Turkey in Los Angeles, confirming targeted fan enthusiasm for certain nations despite a heavily criticized pricing policy.

For other matches, tickets remain available for sale in the "last-minute sales" section, but at astronomical prices. The governing body is applying dynamic pricing for the first time, driving costs up to $4,105 for the United States’ opening match against Paraguay. Watching teams like Lionel Messi’s Argentina costs an average of more than $2,400, while the cheapest tickets start at $380 for less popular matchups such as Austria-Jordan or Curaçao-Ivory Coast.

This pricing strategy is sparking fan outrage, with supporters denouncing a "monumental betrayal." In January, FIFA President Gianni Infantino justified these amounts by citing demand equivalent to "1,000 years of World Cups." The resale market is also fueling indignation, with FIFA taking a 30% commission on each transaction. As the competition approaches, semifinal tickets are reaching new heights, selling for more than $11,130 in Dallas.
