Gunners turn the screw after the interval to blow away Emery’s side in emphatic fashion, writes LAYTH YOUSIF
A CHARITY which supports disabled fans says the continued uncertainty over the cost and suitability of tickets at next summer’s World Cup is “unacceptable.”
Fifa has faced criticism over the pricing of its tickets for the tournament in North America, including those being sold to countries’ most loyal fans, but its strategy regarding accessible tickets for disabled fans has also caused deep concern.
The Disability and Fan Inclusion Network of Football Supporters Europe wrote to Fifa earlier this month outlining its concerns around the lack of accessible tickets in the cheapest $60 (£45) category, the failure to provide free carer/companion tickets and the absence of eligibility checks on its resale platform, where accessible tickets have been sold at hugely inflated prices.
The FSE confirmed on Tuesday it had still received no response to the letter from Fifa.
Level Playing Field (LPF), a charity which supports access for disabled fans to sports events, called today for Fifa to urgently provide clarity.
“The uncertainty remaining over accessible ticketing is unacceptable, more than a fortnight after concerns were raised in response to the initial announcements of details,” an LPF charity spokesperson told the Press Association news agency.
“It appears disabled fans are currently being expected to gamble on cost and access, when we know the widespread importance of planning and limitations around finance.
“Action on inclusion must always be a priority, and the World Cup should be a celebration of everyone coming together.”
Cost, lack of information and a lack of access to carer or companion tickets were three of the top 10 barriers to attending identified by disabled fans in LPF’s 2025 Annual Survey.
Fifa has been approached for comment.
