More than 400,000 empty seats at Club World Cup so far

During the first round of Club World Cup group games in the United States, more than 400, 000 (423, 004) seats were unused.

More than half a million spectators turned out in 56.8% of the stadiums (556, 369).

The tournament’s first 16 matches were played at nine different stadiums, each with a capacity of 979 and 373 seats.

The expanded competition serves as a rehearsal for the USA, Canada, and Mexico’s participation in the international men’s World Cup in the coming summer.

In half of the 16 games so far, the stadium’s capacity has fallen below 50%, with the other half involving more than 50%.

The most watched game of the match between Mamelodi Sundowns and Ulsan HD was by far the worst.

The stadium was only 13.6% full, according to the official attendance.

With 10 minutes left, local journalist Maher Mezahi claimed to have counted 97 fans and 577 before kick-off.

The stadium was 20% full for Salzburg’s victory over Pachuca in Cincinnati while it was 17% full for River Plate’s victory over Japanese side Urawa Red Diamonds.

Chelsea defeated LAFC in their opening game at 31% of Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium’s capacity.

Nearly 1.5 million tickets have been sold for the tournament, according to Fifa, and despite the problems, there have still been sizable crowds.

At the Rose Bowl Stadium in California, Paris St-Germain defeated Atletico Madrid 4-0, drawing the crowd’s record to 819 seats.

The games were played in smaller stadiums with 91% and 81% capacity, respectively.

Chelsea defeated LAFC on Monday at 3 p.m. local time in front of 22, 137 fans in a stadium that can accommodate 71, 000.

More than 70, 000 fans watched Chelsea face Newcastle in a friendly competition known as the Premier League Summer Series at the Atlanta stadium two years ago, which almost sold out. At 8:30 PM, that game took place.
