A WOMEN’S WORLD CUP food and drinks menu has outraged fans who’ve blasted the “joke” prices.
The menu at the Sydney Football Stadium has gone viral after being shared on social media.
Twitter user Matt Vandenburg posted the menu and wrote: “Bucket of chicken 44 bucks? Scrandelous…”
The picture shows the prices for food and drink at Tuesday’s clash between Colombia and South Korea.
Included are a bucket of chicken for $44 and $57 for a snack pack – the equivalent of £23 and £29.
Fans may choose purchase a chook pack for $65 (£34), popcorn chicken and chips for $23 (£12) or buffalo wings for $21 (£11).

“Additional” sauce is also on offer with a $2 (£1) charge.
The food contract at the venue is held by Merivale, a company owned by multi-millionaire Australian businessman Justin Hemmes.
Prices are understood to vary across the different venues in Australia and New Zealand.
For example, the nearby Stadium Australia has pork belly tacos and corn chips priced at $27 (£14).
