FIFA blames fans for not using their official platform, which charges a 30% premium, while StubHub deflects blame, citing FIFA’s flawed tech and last-minute restrictions. Industry insiders suspect speculative sellers are fueling the chaos by listing fake tickets. With games on the line and emotions high, fans just want to watch the action—yet the system leaves them stranded, frustrated, and crying.
