Soccer fans react as MLS tickets go on sale for a fraction of FIFA World Cup tickets
Following the conclusion of the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America, attention has shifted to Major League Soccer (MLS), which continues its season without a summer break. The article highlights the stark contrast in ticket prices: while World Cup matches, especially the final between Spain and Argentina, saw tickets costing thousands of dollars (with some final tickets reaching $1 million and an average of $15,331), MLS tickets for a match between Lionel Messi's Inter Miami and Chicago Fire are available for as little as $11. Soccer fans have reacted positively on social media, with many expressing excitement over the affordability and suggesting it could attract new fans to the sport in the United States. Some fans noted that MLS offers a more family-friendly and accessible option compared to other major US sports leagues like the NFL.
