In 2026, the eyes of the world will be on BC Place as it hosts seven matches in the FIFA World Cup, but until recently, nobody has been able to lay eyes on the stadium agreement for those games.

FIFA have reportedly closed sections of stadiums for some Club World Cup matches due to a lack of ticket sales, after the governing body reduced prices for the competition.

Chelsea's opening match against Los Angeles FC, played at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, was more than three-quarters empty with just 22,000 fans inside the 75,000-capacity venue.
