Three Soccer Sellouts Bring Total to 19

Three more World Cup soccer games sold out Monday, increasing the total of sellouts during the first three rounds to 19. The most recent sellouts were Colombia-United States on June 22 at the Rose Bowl, Nigeria-Greece on June 30 at Foxboro, Mass., and the second-round game July 2 at Washington.

No tickets remain for any games involving Italy, Ireland, Mexico or Norway, but there were tickets Tuesday for the United States’ opener against Switzerland on June 18 at Pontiac, Mich. and its game June 26 against Romania at the Rose Bowl.

U.S. World Cup officials said they estimated that more than 100,000 of about 450,000 available single-game tickets were sold Sunday, when the public sale began.
