Messi can be seen at $4! The tickets for the Club World Cup are given to help students save the venue

Sports Weekly All Media Report

On Sunday morning, the new Top 32 Club World Cup will start in the United States. The opening game will be led by Messily, representing the "host" Miami International to compete with the former African champion Cairo Nationals. This battle is of great significance, but the box office appeal seems to be far less than expected. Not long ago, there were rumors that a total of more than 60,000 tickets were sold for less than 20,000 tickets, and it is expected that there will be a blockbuster empty seat in the opening ceremony. Such a not-so-funny scene is obviously something that FIFA does not want to see. In order to remedy, their "floating fare system" has significantly lowered the fare in this game, from the initial cheapest price of $349 per ticket to $55. However, this strength is still not enough, so FIFA recently used another trick: to push super cheap "gifts" to the school, trying to get local students to come to the stadium to serve as an atmosphere group.

According to competitive network, Miami-Dade Academy received a promotional email from FIFA this week. The email said that due to FIFA's partnership with the academy, the former is willing to offer the latter's students the offer to purchase a ticket for the opening match of the Club World Cup for $20. Not only that, buyers can also receive up to 4 free tickets. In other words, you can actually buy 5 tickets for $20, and pay an average of $4 per ticket to allow 5 people to watch Messi's game on the spot.

For the local community, such benefits are definitely a good thing, but it is too far from FIFA's idea of ​​making a big profit with the Club World Cup. By the way, the lowest official ticket price for the opening game has fluctuated to $69.15, and it is still a seat with "visual blocked" so what do those fans who buy tickets "only price" think?

In accordance with a previous statement from FIFA, they established a cooperative relationship with Miami Dard College in April 2024. FIFA's Miami office will provide internships to the other students, and FIFA Museum has also loaned exhibits from the academy. The college's total student data says that there are as many as 100,000 people, which can indeed fill in many vacancies for the hard rock stadium with a capacity of 65,000 people.
