Before the start of the World Cup in Russia there are fewer than two months left, but tickets for the tournament's matches are already almost all bought out. This was told by the head of the ticket department of FIFA Falk Eller. According to her, about 2.7 million tickets were sold. Such a number will ensure the full appearance of spectators in the stadiums at all matches and this despite the fact that Washington recommended the fans to stay at home because of the alleged terrorist threat in Russia. The Americans, however, did not care about the advice and rushed to the world to see everything with their own eyes. "Of course, we expect a sold out. We have no reason to think that they will not be. This is a very pleasant and positive moment, "RIA Novosti quotes her.. Eller stressed that she can not compare the level of ticket sales in Russia with the 2014 World Cup in Brazil due to the fact that the capacity of the arenas is significantly different. At the same time, the games of international politicians in the "case of Skripal" and around the situation in Syria, where Russia is unjustifiably accused, does not in any way affect the opinion of ordinary people. High ticket sales and the expected sold-out sales confirm this.

People are tired of the fact that they impose an opinion on our country from above, so they want not only to enjoy a football holiday, but also to learn more about the "aggressor country". FIFA World Cup 2018. will be held in 11 cities of Russia from June 14 to July 15.
