There are no longer any tickets for Sporting’s visit to Estoril, the match of the 33rd and penultimate round of the league, the first in which the Lions will take the field with the title of champions guaranteed.
A place in the stands at the Estadio António Coimbra da Mota has been in high demand for more than a week, even before the new champions take on Portimonense, with the visit to Estoril seen as the most likely date to confirm the title.
Benfica’s defeat by Famalicao last Sunday precipitated the title celebration, but demand for tickets for the visit to Estoril remained high, to the point that the Linha club issued an alert regarding the “illegal and unauthorized sale of tickets” for the match scheduled for 6pm next Saturday. .
The fact is that the tickets, which were available at the club’s online ticket office, at Sporting’s ticket offices and in the supermarket chain, flew in two steps.
Estoril, which averages 3,004 spectators per game, with an occupancy rate of about 60 percent, will have a full stadium for the final home game of the season, where, in addition to the Lions’ concert, they can also dictate the matter. Ensuring Canarinhos’ survival in the first division.
