@USMNTFirstNews Seems like the federation should redirect some resources here again

Subaru Park doesn’t have a “bad seat.” One of my favorite places. #doop

[FIFA World Cup 26 Philadelphia™ @FWC26Philly]

The sport has a long history in our city and the best is yet to come

@USMNTFirstNews @BarcelonaBatmn @FIFAcom Would love to see the Confed Cup come back the year before the World Cup

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@11Yanks Taking from here involved loosening the purse strings significantly

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@CharlieDavies9 @CBSSports @TheAthletic You were great fun to watch at the ConfedCup in '09!

[Steven Goff @SoccerInsider]

Fox averaged 38.9 million viewers for World Cup final, the most-watched soccer telecast in U.S. TV history, per the network. Peaked at 51.7 million.

Telemundo/Peacock averaged 22.6 million.

Total: 61.5 million.

Astounding.

Over the 39 days on Lemon Hill, Fan Fest saw

-over 575,000 total fans
-nearly 55,000 fans on June 19th alone
-more than 2.64 million in gross sales for local food trucks
-more than $2.47 million in alcohol sales
-100,000+ Coca-Cola products sold
-18,000+ Lay’s products sold
-at least 6,265 Doritos & Fritos walking tacos
-performances from 51 local artists and musicians, as well as internationally acclaimed acts on non-matchdays

Bravo to Fan Fest staff, Philadelphia Soccer 2026, FIFA Volunteers, and everyone else involved in making this an incredible experience for both tourists and residents of our city this Summer

@AlexiLalas Amazing coincidence, seems only fitting

[Soccer Thoughts @_SoccerThoughts]

If you exclude all matches played in Canada and Mexico, the 2026 FIFA World Cup averaged ~69,800 fans per match across the 78 games hosted in the United States.

That’s higher than the 1994 World Cup record of 68,991 per match, making the U.S.-hosted portion of the 2026 tournament the highest-attended World Cup on a per-match basis in history. 🏟️⚽

JUST IN: This FIFA World Cup was the most lucrative sporting event in history, per CNBC

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@ldock93 Agree with this, we need to take all matches and tournaments seriously, trophies matter to the fans and FIFA rankings will matter a ton if they do expand the World Cup to 64 teams

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@iambarstoolgreg Multiple parades would be needed!

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@vani_hanamirian Too bad our local team has been unwatchable this season, better to fly under the radar for a bit

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@SpangledBallers We could probably run it back next week if we were asked to

[Dr. Demetri @PhillySoulDoc]

@clivedenset @DanCollins2011 @NCAA Agree that @NCAA needs to play by FIFA rules, unlimited subs and subbing back in is horrible, that's not soccer, 5 subs per game is plenty, add a 6th for extra time per FIFA rules
