Tickets for the Chelsea-Fluminense Club World Cup match have dropped 35 times in price in just 72 hours.
The teams meet on Tuesday in the semifinals of the CBA at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, which has a capacity of nearly 87.000 spectators.
According to a report by "The Athletic", the price of a ticket for the games yesterday was only $13,4, while 72 hours earlier it was $473,9.
This means that even a plastic glass of beer at the stadium, which costs $14, is now more expensive than the cheapest ticket for that semi-final.
Ticket prices for better seats are now $44,6, so you can now buy a ticket for just 2,8 percent of the original price, which FIFA announced a few days ago.
FIFA did not respond to questions from "The Athletic" about whether fans who previously purchased tickets at higher prices could receive a partial refund, and others were also denied answers about whether such practices were fair to fans.
There were also other remarks:
"The pitch at Metlife Stadium is more like a golf course, because the grass is cut too short and the ball seems to stick to the surface. These are completely different conditions compared to those in the Bundesliga," complained NIko Kovač after his Borussia's defeat to Real Madrid last night (3:2).
Even Arsene Wenger, who is tasked with reporting this to FIFA, is not satisfied with the condition of the pitch.
"There are problems with the quality of the pitch, but by next year's World Cup, everything will be fixed and the championship in the United States will go smoothly."
