World Cup fans angry over US visa restrictions limiting international attendance

'A World Cup for them not us': Fans' anger at US travel bans and visa restrictions

International fans are expressing frustration over US travel restrictions and visa requirements that are preventing them from attending the 2026 FIFA World Cup being held in the United States. The strict border policies and visa regulations are making fans from around the world feel excluded from the event, with many viewing the tournament as inaccessible to international supporters. Fans argue that the travel barriers create an unequal experience, allowing domestic attendees to participate while limiting global fan participation in one of soccer's biggest events.
