It's like FIFA wants people to hate them

Fan ire at FIFA's Women's World Cup ticket fail

TL;DR
FIFA sold tickets to the Women's World Cup matches and people didn't realize that if you bought more than one ticket, there is no guarantee those tickets would be seated next to each other. People didn't find out where their seats were until they were able to print their tickets recently, months after purchase, and when the complaints started rolling in, FIFA's response was "pound sand"

Apparently selling sports tickets online is some sort of level 10 puzzle that no one has been able to crack

so, people actually buy tickets to women's sporting events?

Do the women players do that thing where they pretend to have been massively injured on the shin?

You know...the bit where they roll around on the ground like a mary?

don't know if the wimmins do it, but the men seem to do it constantly.

actually thats one reason i dont mind watching the womens tourney. They really dont, except for the Brazilian women, and they seem to get the call every time so I'm sure they will ruin it soon and they will all be doing it.

Shame too since usually they try and fight through getting kicked, dragged down and knocked over to try and score...the men could learn something.

Most europeans believe women don't play soccer (as they define it). I agree. The women play more for love of the game
