New star of Major League Soccer, Lionel Messi attracts crowds, and not only in the enclosure of Inter Miami. His next opponent, FC Dallas, sold all his tickets in record time!
The excitement around Lionel Messi is only growing in Major League Soccer. The excitement was already noticeable before his signing from Inter Miami. So unsurprisingly, his successful debut, with five goals scored in his first three games, still attracts fans a little more. And we’re not just talking about his team’s fans. Among the competition too, the popularity of the Argentinian makes it possible to fill the stadiums.

The next opponent of Inter Miami on Sunday, FC Dallas, has indeed filled its enclosure. The daily Marca specifies that all the tickets of the Toyota Stadium of Frisco, whose capacity amounts to 20,500 places, were sold in the space of 18 minutes! It is obviously a record in the history of the Texas franchise which had set the cheapest ticket at 273 euros for this meeting.
More than 8,000 euros to see Messi!
Of course, prices then soared on the resale market. Some would have even paid more than 8,000 euros to see Lionel Messi this weekend. A priori, the spectators will still remain supporters of FC Dallas. And will carefully observe the decisions made by the referees. During the recent victory against Orlando City (3-1), the former Parisian was accused of receiving preferential treatment from officials.
« There are several actions where Leo should have received a second yellow cardcursed Orlando City coach Oscar Pareja. I don’t care if it’s Messi, he has to be refereed the same way as the others. Things have to be fair, but what happened on the pitch wasn’t. (…) Today was a circus. In the event of further contentious decisions, the 20,500 spectators in Dallas will be on the lookout.
