00:00Is this a failure from FIFA? Is the pricing is a foreshadowing disaster for
00:06the club World Cup? What is your take? They're abusing the prices when it
00:09comes to any football match. I think the prices have gone up like a lot compared
00:14to what they were three four years ago and I'm glad that this is happening
00:17because FIFA needs to learn a lesson, assume needs to learn a lesson, the
00:21people in charge of football needs to learn a lesson, that it's not everything
00:24about that money. I know it's messy and when Messi comes to any stadium people
00:27resell their tickets for a massive amount of money but now you can see
00:32$55 so it's a great opportunity for you to go see Messi for $55. I do think that
00:38it's good, it's good for the future of football that they see that it's not
00:42always about selling tickets at a bigger price, it's about bringing fans into the
00:47stadium. Nick, how important it is for the US soccer culture at large for this
00:51tournament to be successful and to get people excited for this and the World
00:56Club that is coming a year from now. Yeah exactly this is kind of seen right now as
00:59like a precursor to the World Cup which is obviously gonna get even more
01:02attention than this than this is going to but what you have is teams like Real
01:06Madrid, Manchester City, these huge name brands, these household names I should
01:12say coming here and playing against our local teams that's obviously gonna be
01:15great for the tournament, great for the sport here in the country there's a lot of
01:18growing that needs to happen. I would have liked to have seen more MLS teams but
01:21obviously you know three is pretty good that's amazing right you can't ask for
01:25more than that so we have to grow the game. I think as much as we want to get
01:29on Inter Miami's case for how they got into the tournament I think they have
01:35done a great job as a team bringing Messi and expanding the MLS as a brand
01:40throughout the world. You don't go to other countries and see people wearing too
01:43many MLS jerseys but you'll see Manchester United jerseys in Africa you'll see
01:47you name it right all over the world so we have a lot of work to do we got a lot
01:51of growth to do and I think this is gonna be huge and yeah there's also the
01:54whole point about organization and running tournaments seamlessly and
01:59that's gonna obviously help too for the World Cup coming up.
