The 2026 FIFA World Cup is shaping up to be a historic event, but it's the price of admission that's making headlines. A group stage match between Portugal and Colombia has become one of the most expensive tickets in tournament history, with resale prices surpassing even the Super Bowl.

Scheduled for June 27 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, the cheapest available seats are hovering around $2,500. That's a steeper price tag than what the average fan paid to attend Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium earlier this year. Some tickets closer to the field are listed for astronomical sums, with one reportedly reaching a staggering $5.75 million on a secondary platform.

The matchup is a hot commodity for two key reasons. First, it could mark the final World Cup appearance for Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo, a player whose global following drives massive demand. Second, both nations are ranked inside the top 15 globally, promising a fiercely competitive contest.

The soaring costs haven't gone unnoticed. Even U.S. President Donald Trump weighed in, admitting he wouldn't pay over $1,000 to attend the USMNT's opener against Paraguay in Los Angeles. "I would certainly like to be there, but I wouldn't pay it either, to be honest with you," he told the New York Post.

As the first World Cup on American soil in over three decades approaches, these eye-watering prices are sparking debate about accessibility. For fans dreaming of witnessing history, the question remains: is it worth the cost?
