The attorneys general of New York and New Jersey have launched an investigation into FIFA over its ticketing practices for the 2026 World Cup.

Zohran Mamdani has opened a route for New York City residents to buy $50 FIFA World Cup tickets for selected games at MetLife Stadium. The deal matters because World Cup tickets have already felt out of reach for many local fans.

The FIFA World Cup takes place June 11 to July 19 in 16 cities across the United States, Mexico, and Canada. The matches are being played at sporting stadiums which have been renamed for the World Cup.

A joint host-city partnership between New York and New Jersey was established in 2018 to host World Cup games at the stadium.

Some veterans from the last World Cup — like forward Christian Pulisic and midfielders Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams — made the team. The roster includes 13 newcomers as well.

New Yorkers will have the opportunity to register to enter a ticket lottery each morning until 10 a.m. on Saturday, May 30.
