> "Every match is already sold out," Fifa president Gianni Infantino said in February. "We keep some tickets back for some last-minute sales, of course, but every match is sold out."

> Like most things about this World Cup, the reality appears to be different.

> Fifa should not have a problem selling out the games featuring the marquee teams - Argentina, Brazil, England, Germany and Spain, to name a few.

> on Saturday there were close to 74,000 tickets available across 86 of the 104 matches.
