Guess who was loitering with intent on the side England were favouring. It was Maradona vs Belgium all over again.

Sunday’s World Cup final is also not yet fully sold out, with 32 of the most expensive tickets still on general sale.

However, these tickets cost between $29,995 (£22,796) and $32,970 (£25,057). These are standard tickets, not VIP.

More than a thousand tickets remain available on the Fifa resale site, several around face value plus the Fifa fee.

The original price of these tickets was $7,380 (£5,609), which means if you decided to buy one of these, Fifa will add an extra $1,107 (£841).

The most expensive resale ticket for the final is listed at $2m (£1.52m), plus a Fifa fee of $300,000 (£228,000).

At first, I really thought it was supposed to be a joke—but what do I know?

A weird thing I only recently learned about the American championship rings is they aren’t even official. They aren’t given by the league, but commissioned, paid for and made by the club/franchise.

The first club to do that was actually the old Montreal Hockey Club (the anglo club, not the Canadiens) because they won, but the Stanley Cup was presented to the Montreal Athletic Association - which they were in the process of separating from. The rings were sort of a temporary stand-in

Some funny comments on reddit:

  • Just repurpose the hydration breaks into oxygen breaks, no big deal
  • Scrap the shootout. Last player to survive smoke inhalation wins the cup
  • The one time i wish india was in the world cup, this is our major cities every year, we’d be unstoppable
    followed up by:
    …You guys, Bangladesh, us Pakistanis lol, we were born for this, and
    …We were born in the smoke, molded by it. We didn’t breathe clean air until the monsoon, and by then, it just felt asthmatic!!
  • Gianni Infantino realizing he can sell 12 Oxygen Break ad slots along with 2 hydration break ad slots
  • I hope they delay it just enough so they don’t have to give us the halftime show and all the other BS
    followed by
    …This is FIFA…we’re closer to getting a half time show and no game
  • Under new FIFA rules if the game is cancelled, the winner is chosen automatically by alphabetical order.
