Why could the Moroccan fans afford tickets, but not team USA fans? Your logic appears flawed.


But that also goes back to the venue selection and the context of the game.

The US has already qualified for the World Cup and this is their 3rd time playing in Cincinnati since last September (plus several other games in Ohio), so you're not giving any other American fans a chance to real to see the team and fans in those areas I'm sure don't feel the need to check out another one that doesn't matter.

Conversely, if you're a Moroccan or a Moroccan fan living in the area why wouldn't you go? How many opportunities do you get to see your team play?

Remember when the team played a friendly in Chattanooga? It was in Feb, camp cupcake, and cold and rainy and the stadium was still packed because it was giving a soccer crazy town a chance to watch their national team play.

I don't get why we don't do that more often for friendlies instead of using the same 5-6 venues now.
