all of these stadiums were ready before the 2022 world cup ones were even built

Huge controversy over here in the States about FIFA and the World Cup. NFL players play on these fields with turf and FIFA forced grass. NFL players have been asking for it for years and it really is sickening they only do it because the World Cup is coming to town

fun fact about Hard Rock Stadium: The awning/roof was built in such a way, it only provides shade to one sideline, the sideline that the Miami Dolphins Bench is on.

The reason SoFi doesn't get the Final is because the field is too narrow and they are going to have to remove a bunch of the seats in the lower bowl to make sure a proper sized field can fit.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium and Lumen Field were the only NFL stadiums that were designed with the intention of also hosting MLS teams so they have the proper seating arrangements and site-lines for soccer matches. Metlife and SoFi were never meant to host soccer matches and will require major renovations prior to the world cup. Metlife got the final simply because it's in New York/New Jersey.

Part of the reason why SoFi is not hosting the Finals is because it is on the west coast and the organizer feel it might be too far from Europe. Also, in the beginning the owner didn't want to put in natural grass.

I know they gloss over the stadium in Philly (Lincoln Financial Field) but it might actually host the most historically significant game in the history of the World Cup. Philadelphia is where the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776. On July 4, 2024 (250 years later), it might host the home country in a round of 16 game. Even if it doesn't, America will celebrate its 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence by hosting a game in the city that it was signed.

Living one town over from Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts, and attending Patriots games there for the least 20+ years, I am excited to have the World Cup visit our stadium! We've never had that big a sporting event here, because being in the North East, and not domed, it does not meet NFL requirements for the SuperBowl. But Tom Brady played nearly his entire career at Gillette and to now host a number of World Cup games, that will be a treat!

Lumen is home to both Seahawks and Sounders and Mercedes Benz is home to both falcons and Atlanta FC

I think the reason why no college stadiums are being used - even the massive ones - are twofold: 1, most don't have wide-enough fields and 2, the surrounding areas often don't support the required infrastructure (hotels, etc.)

SoFi couldn't host the final because the number of seats that needed to be removed to fit a soccer pitch brought them below FIFA's minimum seating capacity for the final.

Mercedes Benz stadium is pretty nice. MLS Atlanta United FC play there and it's probably the best looking MLS stadium currently.

BC Place and BMO Field have hosted FIFA finals before. Vancouver hosted the Final of the 2015 Women's World Cup Toronto hosted the Final of both the Men's and Women's U-20 World Cups in 2007 and 2014. BMO is the ONLY stadium on this list that was built specifically for soccer.

Met Life, while in New Jersey, is only about a 20 minute drive from Manhattan, so it’s pretty convenient for New Yorkers. That’s why the Giants and Jets both play there.

Levi's Stadium is right in the heart of Silicon Valley, the most expensive region in the world.

Being from Massachusetts, I'm both excited and horrified that we are going to have to deal with world cup fans. The money in my industry will be good though 😂😂😂

It should have been at SoFi Stadium, but the large time difference with Europe would probably be the main problem. They'd have to hold the final in the morning for Europe to see it late in the evening

Fun fact about Lumen Field is that it was only converted to a duel use stadium to get the soccer supporters vote on the ballot measure. If the measure didn't past the Seahawks would have left the city.

Anything in California takes a lot more money to build

SoFi in LA won’t host the final because the dimensions of the field currently are too narrow and in order to be able to host the World Cup they’re gonna have to remove seats from the bottom tier, reducing its capacity. That being said, with the capacity reduction it won’t have the capacity needed for a WC final which FIFA requires it to be 80,000+

I wasn't sure what stadiums were going to be used for the world cup. In the United States most of the football(soccer) stadiums only hold around 20 to 30k fans which wouldn't be enough for world cup games. But the American football stadiums have much bigger capacities but aren't built for a soccer viewing experience.

The newer US football stadiums were designed to accommodate soccer as well. For example in Seattle (which I'm 4 hrs from) Lumen Field hosts both the Sounders & Seahawks. The Atlanta & New England stadiums do that as well, along w/ others that didn't make the World Cup cut like Phoenix & Chicago. LA's Sofi doesn't because there are already 2 soccer specific stadiums there.

It will be nice to have the WC in the summer. The last one just felt strange.

Hope the guys see this. MetLife was picked because from what I i could tell was closeness to NYC and better Time Zone than west coast to start a game that all of Europe can watch. A noon game in NYC vs LA woul be 8PM vs 11PM in Moscow. It's to my understanding that it's spread out so the countries wiill not have one area flooded with tons of visitors for a month straight. And that the groups will be "Podded" and just play in one area of the country for group stage

Sofi stadium isn't as easy to convert to the World Cup field size as some of the other stadiums, which was an issue in getting games closer to the final.

This will be the highest attended FIFA World Cup ever. Not only are there more teams and more games, but the seating capacity in Mexico and Canada is already high, then add the gigantic stadiums in the States... It will break previous attendance records by a considerable amount. And to be honest, of all the locations they have listed, there isnt going to ba a bad seat in the house! Every one of these stadiums is pretty amazing, and the host cities will be ready for the fans.

Estadio azteca the most iconic stadium ever. Pele and maradona were champions there 🇲🇽

Mercedes-Benz Stadium was built as a dual-purpose American Football and Soccer stadium. of their two tenants, Atlanta United of the MLS is not only the most successful of the two, but the Attendance record at that stadium is held by Atlanta United.

I was shocked that the Rose Bowl in Pasadena was no selected as a venue. It has hosted a World Cup Final previously as well as a Women's World Cup. But it does lack the modern amenities even though they can cram 110,000 in there if they want to, but it's more bleacher style seating.

Sofi Stadium is NOT climate controlled, it's covered so that the fans and players don't get sunburned. The cover is translucent to let in natural light. But it's not what I would call a "dome" and it's certainly not climate controlled.

I went to the Copa America final at Met Life a few years ago (the one where Argentina lost to Chile and Messi threw a hissy fit and "retired" from international competition afterward) and it's actually a great venue for soccer. I was waaaaaaaaay up at the top and had a great view.

Gotta think of locker rooms, concourse levels, etc… they also count that into the price of the stadium.

6:58 The Seahawks play their too, The Sounders and Seahawks ground share Lumen Field. And it's not the only field that the Sounders share, the Sounders Practice Facility, Starfire Sports Complex, is shared between them, and the Seattle SeaWolves of Major League Rugby.

Great video best world cup stadium video

Met life has the biggest capacity at over 100k that's probably why

Lots of stadiums didn't qualify because of Astroturf and bench seating

I would love to go to the World Cup, but I shudder to think what tickets will cost.

I would trade managers in a heart beat. Berhalter makes Southgate look like Pep.

when they change the field to grass for the stadiums that need them, will they keep the grass or go back to turf once the NFL season starts?

MetLife is actually only a few miles from the heart of New York City.

That Florida stadium has some modern San Siro vibe

3:14 Pitch would be too narrow. The Football field with benches barely fits, and it was purpose made for NFL.

The Seattle stadium and the KC stadium are in competition for the loudest stadiums. KC is 143.3 decibels. Therefore is the loudest.

I’m surprised sofi didn’t but I guess they have some pitch size issues and didn’t want to do any renovations with it being so new. I think Dallas should have got it over metlife ny/nj area is the only reason it is there

Gives people all over the states to go watch it live

yeah, BMO looks that bad after a renovation to bring the Toronto Argonauts CFL Football team over from Roger's Centre. Before the Renovations, when it was home to Toronto FC only, it looked pretty good.

Levi stadium couldn’t put a roof on because it’s too close to international airport, and it would’ve added too much height onto the stadium

Sounders and Seahawks do share Lumen Field. The Sounders hold the single game attendance record for the stadium at 69,274 for MLS Cup 2019. More than any Seahawks game. Last summer Taylor Swift at 72,171 and then Ed Sheeran at 77,286 set the record for any event. They get to fill the field.

Berhalter makes Southgate look like Ancelloti

When they built SoFi they didn't plan very well. They had disagreements with Stan Kroenke I believe over whether they could expand SoFi and I think that cost SoFi a chance to host the final.

MetLife Stadium is only 5 miles (8 km) from New York. North New Jersey is part of the New York metropolitan area, and is effectively an extension of New York. It's actually closer to New York's City Hall than Wembley is to Westminster Abbey

3:31 the dimensions of the field do not meet the requirements to host the final apparently according to fifa law....in order to do that they'd have to remove seats but if they do that then it doesn't meet the capacity requirements. So alot of money and politics between fifa, the city and the owner of SoFi Stadium

SoFi stadium is *NOT* climate controlled. Despite the translucent roof over the top, the sides are open-air.

Some of the stadiums in Canada CFL players play in.

SoFi Stadium has a folded sheet of paper aesthetic, but it's a good stadium, greetings from Mexico guys.

Mexico and Canada are located in America too for your information

4:30 - our place is a bit crazy, but in a good way! The requirements given to the architects were from the owner of the NFL franchise here. He was married to a much younger woman at the time, saw her kids playing the game, and liked it. Not slighting the man - Atlanta has been the apex of soccer (English slang! Short for 'association football' in the 19th C) in the southeastern US since the 1960s. Phil Woosnam started the whole thing here, from youth football to the 1968 NASL Champ Atlanta Chiefs! Those of us who love the game had waited 25yrs for MLS to recognize us. And "Uncle Arthur" (Blank) delivered. I still claim the reason we don't have pro/rel in the US is because rich business folks don't pay this much for stadiums to have their club relegated. Yeah, we share it with the NFL team, but there are separate changing rooms ("locker rooms" in US parlance) for MLS clubs, the seats in the corners retract so we can play on a full-sized pitch, but it's still kind of a tight fit. Supporters here sitting higher up in the stadium are used to looking up at 'the Halo' when a duel for the ball's going on in the corner, since the corners are out of view unless you're sitting down there. Other than that, it's very much like a big American football stadium with a terrarium over the top of it. Big glass panels that bring daylight inside and allow for great views of the city's skyline. We play on artificial turf, even with the roof open, there's not enough sun to keep grass alive. Local media reports that they'll bring real grass in for the Cup games, we're all abuzz about that. We were awarded a semi-final! Yeah, I'm already saving up for tickets.

i’m so so hopeful to make the 5 hour drive to Philadelphia for the round of 16 game on the Fourth of July. i can’t imagine much bigger of a deal, especially if the US somehow makes it that far

The final should have been at Sofi or Atlanta for the sheer beauty of the stadiums, or Estadio Azteca for the vibes and history of Pele and Maradona

All the US stadiums are NFL and the Canadian stadiums are I think MLS/Canada soccer and Canada America football and the Mexican stadiums are soccer

Estadio Azteca in Mexico City will host the opening game

Sofi stadiums field isn’t big enough for fifa regulations

The seeds will be as such that their won't be too much coast to coast travel till the knock out rounds.

I'm from Monterrey...BEST soccer stadium in México! Go Rayados!! ❤

You guys should do more soccer videos and definitely need to do more 26 world cup videos including another stadium video

You are wrong guys is not Mexico,America and Canada is Mexico, United States and Canada America is the entire Continent.

3:15 the field is very narrow for soccer.

i cannot believe its metlife.

It’s who pays for the final in the USA. Money trumps everything. It should be Sofi or AT&T easy

6:51 Stadiums like that aren't built for soccer alone, even less so in 2002 when it was built. It's the Seahawks stadium and the Sounders are lucky enough to play there. You can also look at seat count, if it has 31k + seats it isn't a soccer specific stadium, as the largest soccer specific stadium in the US is only 30K seats. Which is still pretty impressive considering the popularity of the sport in the US.

NRG is a great stadium for football. I don’t know why this guy shit all over Houston. He’s probably never even been. There is a reason it’s hosted Super Bowls, College Football Championships, Final 4, Gold Cup and Copa America games. Houston knows how to get it done. NRG is a great venue

SoFi's field dimensions are too small. Simple as that.

Berhalter is American Southgate

Sorry guys I stopped it at 3 minutes. WOW, most of those stadiums are spectacular. I can't wait to see your reaction to the Toronto Stadium. It pales by comparison and is really an embarrassment compared to the rest, I've seen in the first 3 minutes... I saw the rest and my sediments exactly over the Toronto Stadium...BMO... What a joke...

My Benz stadium is Amazing and incredible you’ll see why

Nick and Damo All host's teams will play at home for there groups games Udsa is going to play all their groups games in the west coast Canada will switch from can and Vancouver teams are going to have three days between groups games so fans can travel and watch their teams if there any Canadian fans in New York they can go to Buffalo to Canada

Will you gentlemen be coming to the World Cup here in 26?

You guys watched the wrong video! The guy talking in the video is not giving enough information like a couple of stadiums get million dollar renovations.

Where do you think the US and England finish in the world cup

You guys need to react to prime Westbrook. THe one you reacted to didnt have enough of it in there.

You should say USA not América because America Is not a country it is a continent Americans are all the people who live on this continent.

allegiant should be there lol

crazy you hate on AKRON stadium. thumbs down for me just because of that

3 racing circuits around 3 stadiums in this tournament. Formerly NRG Stadium for INDYCAR, Toronto For INDYCAR, and Hard Rock stadium for Formula 1.

I’m from New Jersey great to see internationals know MetLife ain’t New York

First one 🥇

MetLife Stadium is garbage. It’s run down, getting in and out of the parking lots is a nightmare. Even getting public transportation to and from the stadium is a nightmare. The food options are terrible, typical bad quality ballpark food, not a healthy option to be found. Restrooms are old and, let’s just call it unkempt. I went there to see Metallica last summer and was appalled by what is supposed to be a flagship stadium.

Hi what´s up guys new subs from México city I am a Chivas de Guadalajara fan follower and Manchester United MM Red Devil fan why don´t you have the Mexican flag behind you guys ?

America is the entire "continent" usa is only usa or the united states of america get it right boy.

While SoFi is the state of the art stadium, the nearby Rose Bowl hosted the 1994 Men's Final and the 1999 Women's Final. When it was bid on internally, both Dallas and New York outbid Los Angekes for the final and Atlanta got a semifinal over LA to lessen travel
