World Cup 2026 quarterfinal ticket prices have fallen by nearly 60% after the United States and Portugal were eliminated from the tournament. This big drop happened on resale platforms as demand decreased.
The United States, one of the co-hosts, lost 4-1 to Belgium in the Round of 16. Portugal, led by superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, was beaten 1-0 by Spain. These early exits removed major fan attractions, especially for the Spain vs Belgium quarterfinal at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Get-in prices for that match fell from around $2,950 to nearly $1,200 on secondary markets.
Fans who planned to watch their favorite teams now changed plans, leading to more tickets available for sale. This shift shows how star players and national teams strongly affect ticket demand. Other quarterfinal matches also saw some price drops, though not as sharp.
The tournament continues with new favorites like Spain, France, and England moving forward. Organizers expect strong interest in the remaining games, but prices may stay lower without the big draws of USA and Portugal. Many football lovers now have a chance to attend quarterfinals at more affordable rates.
