France have a chance to end their World Cup 2026 campaign on a high note this Saturday in Miami. With around 7,000 tickets still available, the bronze medal match between France and England is far from sold out, despite a 22:00 BST kick-off. A golden opportunity for fans to witness this high-stakes clash live, especially as Les Bleus extend their unbeaten run to five wins - their latest result a 2-0 victory over Morocco on 9 July 2026.
Why this match matters for France
The French side are targeting a fitting finale after a dominant tournament. Their five-game winning streak, capped by the Morocco quarter-final triumph, underscores their control on the pitch. This third-place decider offers a final chance to stamp their authority, particularly against a determined England side. Led by Kylian Mbappé, the French squad aim to deliver one last memorable performance before bidding farewell to World Cup 2026 in style.
Ticket options remain plentiful. On Fifa’s official site, 1,246 general sale tickets are still up for grabs starting at $865 (£657), while 5,864 places are live on the resale platform. Prices fluctuate by category, with steep discounts on premium seats: a category one originally priced at $1,125 (£855) is now listed at $659 (£500). A steal for fans willing to make the trip to Florida.
How to buy tickets and what to expect
Prices hinge on the chosen category. The cheapest category three seats start at $455 (£346) - including Fifa’s 15% fee. For those seeking the best view, premium options are still within reach, even as some face value prices have halved. Resale costs are set by holders, which explains the wide price gaps. A category one at $1,125 can drop to $659, a near-40% saving.
On resale, prices reflect user valuations. The most affordable options hover around face value plus Fifa’s fee, while VIP seats can skyrocket to $2m (£1.52m) - a record for a third-place playoff. Fans should move fast, as Sunday’s final also has 32 tickets left, priced between $29,995 and $32,970.
What’s next for France?
France leave World Cup 2026 with heads held high, but the focus remains on ending on a high note. Their next stop? A heroes’ return to Europe after this transatlantic adventure. With five straight wins under their belt, the side depart Florida with momentum intact - and this bronze medal match could well be their final memory of this edition.
Last updated: 17 July 2026. France entered this clash on a five-game winning streak, a run that has cemented their status as early favourites for the next major tournaments.
