FIFA World Cup quarter-final ticket prices crash after USA, Portugal exits

New Delhi, July 8 (UNI) Ticket prices for the FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-finals have taken a sharp hit, with demand falling after the exits of co-host USA and Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal from the marquee tournament.
According to reports quoting secondary ticket marketplace TickPick, resale prices for several quarter-final matches have dropped dramatically, with the Spain vs Belgium clash at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood witnessing one of the steepest declines. Data from SeatPick also shows that average resale prices across all four quarter-finals have fallen by more than 50 per cent over the past three days.
The biggest reason behind the decline is the United States' early exit from the competition. Belgium ended the co-hosts' campaign with a 4-1 win in the Round of 16, removing what was expected to be one of the tournament's biggest draws for local fans. A quarter-final involving the USA in the Los Angeles area was widely expected to generate huge demand.
