History

Historical Context

In 1994 the United States hosted the FIFA World Cup, with the knockout stage running from July 2 to July 17, the tournament’s first U.S. edition. That experience influenced later changes, including the 48-team format approved in 2017 for the 2026 World Cup. Today’s Miami matches revive resale concerns, urging FIFA to tighten ticket rules.
