Ticket prices for a 2026 FIFA World Cup quarterfinal match have fallen by nearly 60% on the resale market following the elimination of the United States and Portugal from the tournament.
The biggest price drop has been recorded for the Spain vs. Belgium quarterfinal at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, where demand declined sharply after both teams exited the competition.
The United States were knocked out by Belgium in the Round of 16, while Portugal suffered a 1-0 defeat to Spain, ending Cristiano Ronaldo’s final World Cup campaign.
Industry analysts say the exits of two of the tournament’s biggest fan bases significantly reduced demand for quarterfinal tickets, forcing resale prices lower and creating cheaper buying opportunities for supporters still planning to attend the match.
FIFA’s official ticket prices remain unchanged, with the decline affecting only the secondary resale market, where prices fluctuate based on supply and demand. Visit www.jocomms.com for more news.
