The majority of the seizure, according to the Hong Kong Customs Authority, was bound for the World Cup organizers in Mexico, the United States and Canada.
Among the goods were around 30,000 counterfeit match shirts that, according to the authorities, were so well-made that it was very difficult to distinguish them from genuine shirts.
In the operation, a truck driver was arrested at the border between China and Macau and five more people were arrested on suspicion of being involved in selling the goods online.
The maximum penalty for dealing in counterfeit goods in Hong Kong is five years in prison and a $64,000 fine.
