Fans attempting to enter the stadium without tickets forced the Copa America final between Argentina and Colombia to be delayed by more than an hour.
The match at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, home of the Miami Dolphins NFL team and one of the sites for the 2026 World Cup, was pushed back several times as organisers worked to deal with the issues.
A statement issued on X by stadium staff said: “Thousands of fans without tickets attempted to forcibly enter the stadium, putting other fans, security and law enforcement officers at extreme risk.”
