Football fans launch complaint over World Cup ticket prices to European Commission

Football fans have launched a formal complaint with the European Commission against FIFA over World Cup ticket prices. Football Supporters Europe (FSE) said on Tuesday it joined with consumer group Euroconsumers to allege football’s world governing body had abused its position to impose excessive prices. FSE accused FIFA of a “monumental betrayal” in December when tickets were put on general sale ranging from $140 for the cheapest group games to $8,680 for the final.
