Tickets to the US Open Cup final, in which Lionel Messi will be playing for Inter Miami in an effort to win his second championship, will cost at least $350.
Messi led Miami to a US Open Cup semifinal victory over Cincinnati on Wednesday, ensuring that he will have the chance to raise another title just four days after winning his first in the United States.

Ticketmaster sells standard tickets at pricing determined in conjunction with Major League Soccer.Tickets for the Miami extravaganza’s top seating section start at an eye-popping $1,260.
And as the date of Messi’s second final with Inter approaches, resale values are set to skyrocket.Tickets for Messi’s long-awaited MLS debut this Saturday night have risen to over $20,000, proving that Messi fever has entered the United States this summer.
The 36-year-old joined Miami from PSG in France, but he has yet to make an appearance in a league game for Tata Martino’s squad.
With 10 goals in seven games to help Inter win the Leagues Cup, he had a sensational start to life in America.
On Wednesday, in a tense US Open Cup match versus Cincinnati, Messi saved his side with a last-ditch, stunning cross that Leonardo Campana headed home in the final seconds of stoppage time.
After regulation and overtime ended in a 3-3 tie, Benjamin Cremaschi, then 18 years old, scored the game-winning penalty kιck in the shootout.Despite supporters paying up to $20,000 to see the Argentina World Cup winner play this weekend, Martino has hinted that Messi and others may be rested for the MLS match against New York Red Bulls.
‘Leo and many other players are nearing an important physical limit, and from today we will start to examine this – how do I confront at least the next three games,’ Martino remarked following Wednesday’s victory against Cincinnati.
You also need to consider the fact that we played 45–50 games in that time frame.
