The 2026 World Cup semifinals feature a pair of matches between global powerhouses, but ticket prices for one match are currently more than double those of the other.
France are No. 1 in the FIFA men's world rankings and will play No. 3 Spain in Dallas on Tuesday. Spain spent much of the World Cup buildup in 2026 atop the rankings before being passed by France in April.
The get-in price for their semifinal was $1,325 as of noon ET on Monday, according to ticket-tracking service TicketData. com. That represented a 26% decline over the past three days, and the current price is less than half that of the other semifinal.
