Panathinaikos announced sold out for Olympiakos rematch due to lack of tickets available
Panathinaikos announced on Wednesday (15/2) at the closed Agios Thomas Stadium that they were sold out for the second leg of the Challenge Cup, with the Greens stressing that no tickets will be released as capacity does not allow them to be issued.
Panathinaikos beat Olympiakos 3-1 in the first semi-final of the two teams for the Challenge Cup and took the lead in qualifying ahead of the second leg, which will be played on Wednesday (15 February) at the Agios Thomas indoor stadium.
In fact, the Greens announced on Wednesday morning (02/08) that the game will be played to a full house as it is already sold out as there will be no season tickets and invitations for sponsors and athletes to cover the stadium’s small capacity.
The relevant announcement states:
“Panathinaikos Athletic Club informs fans about the rematch with Olympiakos for the Challenge Cup on Wednesday February 15 at 7pm at the closed Agios Thomas in Maroussi.
The management of the “Cloverleaf” would like to thank the people for their great thirst and interest in attending the game with Olympiacos.
From here onwards, the capacity information for the St. Thomas Hall in Maroussi no longer allows tickets to be issued, since the season tickets are around 950 and the remaining minimum spaces are occupied by invitations from sponsors and athletes.
Access is therefore granted to holders of season tickets and holders of an invitation or accreditation for the respective game.
