Will I be able to buy World Cup tickets on resale websites?

During the 2018 World Cup, Fifa filed a complaint against Swiss-based website Viagogo and cancelled any tickets purchased through the site.

While that might sound selfish, ticket touting at major tournaments has been a huge issue for decades and the practice appears to have simply moved online.

It is unlikely that if you buy tickets on resale sites like Viagogo for the tournament they will be recognised by Fifa.
