Chapter 1619 Ticket Disturbance
The venue for the final has already been decided at the beginning of the year, and that is the San Siro Stadium in Milan or the Meazza Stadium. No matter what his name is as the final venue of the Champions League, it is already a certainty.

San Siro is only six kilometers away from the center of Milan. It is the home ground of AC Milan and Inter Milan, two of the Big Three in Serie A history. It is also one of the most famous football stadiums in the world.Although the stadium was officially named San Siro in 30 in honor of Giuseppe Meazza, the famous Italian player of the 40s and 1980s, many still refer to it as San Siro.

There is also a little story that is not very human. AC Milan was founded on December 1899, 12. What people in society talk about, in this club, only two types of people often appear, they are the British athletes living in Italy and the businessmen in the high-end residential areas of Milan who usually drink cocktails in American bars.These are the people who see Milan cricket and football clubs as proof of their identity, and talk about them with glee and disdain.

It was not until March 1908, 3, when some members of the Milan team were separated from the team to organize the Inter Milan team, that the superior arrogance of the AC Milan team changed. Pietro Pirelli, who frequented high-class American bars in Italy at the time, had the idea to use the money he earned from his business for Milan, which he loved. The team built a football stadium to meet the needs of the two teams, and he could also become a hero in the city of Milan, so he named the stadium San Siro.

The San Siro Stadium was named after the San Siro area in the west of Milan. Pirelli had already stated that it was dedicated to his beloved Milan team when he built the stadium.When it was first established, it was specially designed for football games, so the dirt field and local climate of the stadium greatly helped the Italian country, and ensured that the team defeated the Austrian team at that time and became the final champion.

The stadium has a total length of 68 meters and a width of [-] meters. The stadium is located near the local racetrack and is one of the symbols of the city of Milan. Numerous world-class football matches have been held here. It is the most famous stadium in the world. one of the football fields.So far, the San Siro Stadium has also been admired by professional football players from all over the world, and many players are very proud of having the opportunity to play in this stadium.

However, in recent years, there has been some signs of decline here, just like Italian football, which always gives people a feeling of decline, and the last time a major event was held was on May 13, 2001, 5 years ago. Munich and Valencia played the UEFA Champions League final again, and the final result was a penalty shootout for Bayern, which also made many people think that this place should not be considered a blessed place for the Spanish team.

However, Inzaghi, the image ambassador of this final, said, "Milan is an open city. She is willing to be the focus of the world and welcomes guests from anywhere in the world. There has never been any magic spell here. The curse can become eternal here, and the two sides can almost play the most exciting game in the world here, because this is where miracles are born."

UEFA also announced the ticket allocation plan for the UEFA Champions League final: Among the nearly [-] tickets for the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy, the two clubs will each receive [-] tickets, and the remaining [-] tickets will be reserved for UEFA. The last [-] tickets will be drawn by lottery.

But for Chelsea, which has a large number of fans and almost full home games in the past two years, this number seems a bit small. Therefore, Chelsea's official website and fans' website issued a statement at the first time, hoping to get more tickets.

BBC5 radio publicly released a statement from Chelsea today, which clearly mentioned that UEFA did not give Chelsea a sufficient number of final tickets, and did not even meet their bottom line requirements.Chelsea therefore expressed its disappointment with UEFA, but UEFA still strongly stated that there is no room for discussion on this issue, and even unsold tickets in Milan will not be sent to Chelsea, they will be put into the draw part.

UEFA believes that the ticket policy has not changed since the moment it was introduced earlier this season.The Chelsea club understands the disappointment of the fans very much, which has indeed hit the enthusiasm of the fans.For Chelsea fans, there is a chance in the draw, and of course the possibility is equal to everyone else.

The ticket policy they also mentioned in the statement was proposed by the Chelsea club at the beginning of this season. The main content is roughly the opportunity to buy tickets for the finals with points.Every time Chelsea fans buy a ticket for Chelsea's European games this season, they can accumulate one more point, and fans who accumulate more than a certain point are eligible to buy tickets for the final.But now due to the small number of tickets allocated, the result of this certain score is seven points. Since Chelsea have only participated in six home games in the Champions League before, even those season ticket holders who rarely have the opportunity to go abroad have reached [-] points. If it is less than the standard of seven points, they have to participate in the unsecured lottery.

Regarding Chelsea's dissatisfaction, UEFA spokesman William Gaillard once again stated in an interview that UEFA's distribution principle is fair, and the number of [-] tickets is also fair. In a stadium with millions of people, I believe that the tickets for the game will still be sold out, and there are still many fans who cannot watch the game. This is not a matter of allocation. This number will not change in the next few weeks. Decide."

After the turmoil, fans had to line up to buy tickets. However, before the scheduled ticket sale time on Friday at 10:[-] pm, a large number of fans were waiting outside the window, but due to computer problems, the official ticket sale was delayed for two hours.The ticket office staff had never used this new computer system, and it took up to [-] minutes to sell a ticket. The police also had to come forward many times to calm the emotions of the fans to prevent riots.

After waiting all night, countless infatuated fans gave up completely and left the ticket window early the next day.At this time, ticket sellers began to sell high-priced tickets of 140 US dollars to fans who did not buy tickets, and the lowest ticket price was only [-] US dollars.

Another team that entered the final, Real Madrid, decided to draw the lucky ones among the [-] fans who requested to purchase tickets. On this day, there was also a long queue of fans waiting for the draw outside the Bernabéu Stadium.
