Benfica warns Inter fans: “Buy tickets in the away section”

The press release from the Lisbon club clarifies that the seats available to Italian supporters will be 3,250, or 5% of the stadium’s capacity. Apply the provisions of UEFA and prohibited the purchase in other sectors

A total of 3,250 tickets have been reserved for Italian fans, equal to 5% of the total capacity, in compliance with the strictest safety standards defined by UEFA, but which must be purchased exclusively on the official platforms of the Italian club. other source may be considered irregular and make it impossible to access the facility”.

NO FREE SALE

“To ensure the safety of all Italian fans who wish to travel to Portugal to watch the Benfica-Inter match, fans are invited to stick to the seats reserved for supporters of the opposing team. Any other option which provides for the use of unofficial platforms, it should be stressed, may be considered illegal entry and may not meet the conditions necessary for access to the match”.
