- Officials say FIFA is not covering transportation costs, leaving New Jersey Transit with a multi-million dollar bill.
- Fan reactions on prices describe the experience as overly commercial and frustrating for regular supporters.
- Officials say more details on transportation will be revealed, as games approach and demand is evaluated.

- Designated rideshare areas will be provided near MetLife with a shuttle to the stadium.
- Fans have a waitlist option for parking if spots are sold out before matches.
