An assault on the ticket offices, physical and virtual. Ticket sales for the first leg of the playoffs between Cagliari and Bari began at 4.00 pm (kick-off on Thursday at 8.30 pm) and in a few minutes on TicketOne, the only authorized online retailer, more than 12 thousand fans. Among other things, the automatic purchase system went haywire several times, since it did not guarantee the purchase of tickets, even though they were highlighted on the map as purchasable.
So many that the Unipol Domus was sold out in a very short time, given that season-ticket holders have seats reserved until 1pm tomorrow, Tuesday 6 June.
Thousands connected from PCs and smartphones. But many also flocked to the authorized betting shops: the line of waiting rossoblù supporters invaded the street in via Riva Villasanta, in front of the resale on the corner with via Famagosta. Traffic tilt, with motorists who have not taken well the unusual roadblock. Fewer fans in front of the box office, in viale Regina Margherita, but a small crowd has formed there too.
In Piazza L'Unione Sarda, on the other hand, the sale is guaranteed only from tomorrow: yesterday it was only possible for the disabled
Tickets for the guest sector are not currently available, pending the determinations of the public safety authorities. Impossible even for Cagliari citizens to buy an entrance ticket for the return on Sunday, at San Nicola di Bari.
