The AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas – home of the Dallas Cowboys – will be one of the semi-final venues. The Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, home to the city’s Major League Soccer club as well as the Falcons NFL franchise, will also host the semi-finals. Meanwhile, the third-place play-off will be hosted at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium. Other US venues include the Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, the NRG Stadium in Houston, Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, and Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino said the most inclusive and impactful World Cup ever is no longer a dream, but a reality that will take shape in the form of 104 matches in 16 state-of-the-art stadiums across Canada, Mexico, and the USA. He added, “From the opening match at the iconic Estadio Azteca to the spectacular final in New York New Jersey, players and fans have been at the core of our extensive planning for this game-changing tournament.”
