The 2026 World Cup is set for summer 2026, promising more teams and incredible excitement. However, fans from some countries could face difficulties attending the tournament.
Details: According to The Athletic, supporters from Senegal and Ivory Coast may encounter problems getting into the tournament. The issue stems from the U.S. government imposing entry bans for these countries, meaning fans could struggle to see their national teams at the World Cup.
By the way, citizens of Iran and Haiti, countries that have also faced restrictions, are already experiencing entry limitations to the United States.
We also reported that FIFA decided to reduce ticket prices for World Cup matches, a move made in response to negative reactions from fans.
Reminder: All groups for the 2026 World Cup have already been formed, and it is now known who will face whom at the tournament.
