Want to go to the World Cup Final?

Written on Friday, May 29th, 2009 by Christian Wach

Unfortunately you can’t — unless you already have a ticket:

The second phase of ticket sales for the opening match, semi-finals and the final of the 2010 Fifa World Cup has been sold out.

Fifa said on Thursday the second phase had seen 105 322 tickets confirmed and approved so far.

“Due to a high demand for certain team-specific ticket series, these tickets are no longer available for the following countries: England, Brazil, Argentina, Australia, Ireland and Netherlands,” it said.
