Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to take part in the 2026 World Cup. Although he has reached the typical retirement age for footballers, his astonishing record of 10 goals in 9 games in the Saudi Pro League this season shows that he is still going strong and remains in top form. Global fans are eager to witness this legendary star showcasing his talent on the world stage.
FIFA has introduced a new system for the 2026 World Cup. In addition to expanding the tournament to 48 teams, they also implemented a "Super Seed" avoidance mechanism to prevent the four highest-seeded countries from competing until the semi-finals, aiming to create "Dream Matchups". Under the new system, if Argentina and Portugal both advance from their group and progress smoothly, they are highly likely to compete against each other in the quarterfinals. This means the two legends, Messi and Ronaldo, could possibly stage their first—and possibly last—"Endgame" battle in World Cup history.
After the two initial tranches of sales, over 2 million tickets have already been sold. Prices have surged continuously since the official announcement of the draw results and schedule. Ticket prices for Argentina's group matches rose by at least 174% within just three days of the schedule announcement. Meanwhile, the price of the match in which Portugal competes against Colombia in Miami has quadrupled, making it the most expensive match to watch before the semi-finals. With no cap on resale market prices, the cost of attending this massive global event will only continue to rise. Travelers intending to make this should prepare in advance.
