Fifaโs resale portal currently lists 176,000 tickets for the opening 'group' phase of the competition, when each team plays three others. https://t.co/UebmIHCSVl
Thousands of expensive tickets to the World Cup remain unsold one week from the tournamentโs start.
There appear to be two ways FIFA can get rid of them before it has to slash prices โฌ๏ธ
๐จJUST IN: Last minute US visa cancelations are costing World Cup fans thousands
Several fans have had their visa status go from "approved" to "travel not authorised"
๐จ๐จ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐๐๐ก๐: Officials predict the match between Mexico and South Africa will generate over 1.1 billion live viewers. It would become the most-viewed opening event in history, surpassing the 2008 Beijing Olympics and pushing it into second place. ๐ณ
โค๏ธ๐ฟ๐ฆ The entire South African national team lined up to take pictures and sign the jersey of the ONLY kid who showed up to visit them at their hotel in Pachuca.
They also signed his World Cup album and the coach gifted him the South Africa jersey. ๐๐๐ผ
Fifa has been accused of using unofficial resale websites to shift cut-price World Cup tickets in an effort to avoid refunding those who paid face value.
As @ben_rumsby explains, the claim emerged days after the governing body was subpoenaed by the New York and New Jersey attorney generals amid allegations supporters had been misled over seating plans at stadiums โคต๏ธ
