The Football Supporters' Association have described FIFA's pricing as 'ridiculous' after World Cup final tickets were made available for a top price of over $10,000 via open sale.
The 2026 World Cup final is due to take place at the MetLife Stadium, New Jersey, on July 19.
It has a capacity of 82,500, making it one of the biggest football stadiums in the United States.
On Wednesday, FIFA re-opened ticket sales for the final.

Users attempting to purchase tickets encountered number error messages and issues with purchasing.
According to BBC Sport's Dale Johnson, who joined the virtual queue for tickets only to be met with an error message, FIFA were charging $10,990 for the most expensive available ticket.
It is said to be thought as the most expensive general admission ticket to a football match.
ESPN note that Category 2 tickets were raised up to a maximum of $7,380, and Category 3 tickets up to a maximum of $5,785.
Reacting to the ticket prices, one fan wrote: "The whole experience [buying tickets] was a disaster. Waited in line for 9.5 hours only to be priced out of any remaining games left. Prices are a complete disgrace."
A second said: "Should be a celebratory event, it's just greed.."
While a third fumed: "Wtf man absolute disgrace."
In a statement following the ticket price announcements, the Football Supporters' Association told SPORTbible: "This is the most expensive World Cup in history for travelling supporters, from match tickets to travel and accommodation.
"It isn't just an issue for English fans but for those across the planet.
"FIFA's ridiculous ticket pricing and opaque policies have led many fans to conclude they simply can't afford to attend football's greatest global event."
What have FIFA said about ticket prices?
Speaking to US outlet CNBC in March, FIFA president Gianni Infantino spoke of the dynamic pricing system in place in the United States 'in particular', which would cause previously fixed prices to increase or decrease.
"In four weeks, we have requests for a thousand years of World Cup," he said.
"We have received ticket requests from over 200 countries over the world. Everyone wants to be part of something special.
"The prices have been fixed, but in the US in particular there is a thing called dynamic pricing meaning the price will go up or down.
"That's part of the market we are in. Prices for some matches will go up. It's not a problem in the sense that the demand is there... The price is a consequence of that."
