Deputy Boris España's Football Ticket Giveaway Sparks Excitement and Controversy in Guatemala

Guatemalan Deputy Boris España has sparked public debate following a social media post where he offered 50 tickets to the upcoming Guatemala vs. El Salvador football match. In a video uploaded on August 30, 2025, Deputy España, who represents Chiquimula, stated that he would give away the highly sought-after tickets if his post garnered 3,000 likes. The match is scheduled for September 4th at Estadio Cementos Progreso. The announcement has drawn significant attention, with many users expressing excitement and sharing the post in hopes of winning. However, the initiative has also raised questions and criticism. Several comments from the public questioned the origin of the tickets, with some users alleging that the Guatemalan Football Federation (FEDEFUT) had previously stated that physical tickets for the match were not available and that FIFA regulations prohibit such giveaways, potentially leading to sanctions. 'Representatives from FEDEFUT said there are no physical tickets for this match, FIFA prohibits it and it could even lead to suspension, where did this Deputy get these tickets?' one user commented, reflecting widespread skepticism. Despite the controversy, the post has accumulated over 6,000 likes, exceeding the initial target, and has been shared hundreds of times, indicating a strong public desire to attend the match. Deputy España has not yet addressed the concerns regarding the tickets' authenticity or the potential regulatory issues.
