Aperribay offers hope to members who narrowly missed tickets | OneFootball

Real Sociedad president Jokin Aperribay set out Copa del Rey final ticket plans at Anoeta on Friday, offering hope to members who narrowly missed the ballot cut.

According to AS, sales open on Monday via a three-stage system. Members buy a sector-linked ticket from a link sent today, download it days before the game, then activate it hours before kick-off. All purchases must be made in the RFEF app, not at the ticket office or on the club website.

Member support runs Monday to Wednesday, 10:00 to 20:00, plus three hours before Sanse v Eibar on Thursday and before the first team v Levante on Saturday. The club will keep the priciest seats so fans spend less. It initially held about 15% of tickets, now 9.9%, with roughly 5% moved to members, making around 90% of the allocation member-linked.

A total of 1,532 fans asked to stand behind the goal, so those seats will be withheld from Monday’s sale and assigned to them to drive the atmosphere. Reduced-visibility seats, affected by the safety rail, are the cheapest and sit in sector 5 behind the goal, where the average price is €115.

Aperribay cautioned against raising hopes widely, but was confident those just outside the cut will get in after about 250 extra tickets were added to the list. He suggested that more than 100, 200 and possibly 300 people could make the final.
