Empty Seats at Club World Cup Opener

Anyone else notice the sea of red at the Benz for Chelsea vs LAFC? The Club World Cup’s US debut didn’t exactly bring the heat, with barely half the stadium filled despite slashed ticket prices. Compare that to Messi’s Inter Miami match—packed house! Scheduling on a Monday afternoon didn’t help, but this is a tough look for FIFA’s big plans. Is the new format already in trouble, or just a bad day at the office? #ClubWorldCup #Chelsea #FIFA #Sports #Soccer
