England star Marc Guehi has become the first member of the Three Lions squad to criticise FIFA for their ticket prices at the tournament.
The subject of ticket prices for the World Cup has been controversial and widely debated throughout the tournament, particularly for the knockout stages.
As of 10am on Friday, the day before the game between England and France, 7,000 tickets were still available, including 1,246 on general sale.
This resulted in tickets being priced at £657 and £855 in general sale for the third-place play-off match.
After helping England claim a win over France, Guehi took the opportunity to thank the travelling fans and also called out FIFA over the ticket prices for the fixture.
“It’s always hard, especially when you feel like you should have been in the final, so it was down to us to try to do the best that we could,” Guehi told reporters after the victory over Les Bleus.
“We owe it to fans back home for the support.”
The Manchester City defender added: “We definitely owe it to everyone who came and watched, especially here in Miami.
“Because ticket pricing was rubbish, I don’t know what they were thinking, FIFA, to be honest. So at least they could enjoy a fairly entertaining game.”
