FIFA President Gianni Infantino held a June 10, 2026, press conference at Azteca Stadium in Mexico City, where he addressed the upcoming World Cup schedule, a denied U.S. visa for a Somali referee, and ticket pricing. He described the referee incident as unfortunate, stated FIFA lacks authority over U.S. visa decisions, and defended prices by referencing the North American market. Multiple sources confirm these statements while differing on emphasis and context.
