FIFA U-17 World Cup: Tickets to cost Rs 48; Tickets will be exclusively available on FIFA.com

Tickets for the FIFA Under-17 World Cup India 2017 will be made available for booking from today. The tickets will be exclusively available on FIFA.com. The ticket pricing for the World Cup has been set at 48 rupees during the first phase of ticket sales. The physical copies of those will be rolled out after the day of the draw on 7th July. Sports Minister Vijay Goel and Spanish World Cup winner Carles Puyol yesterday launched ticketing for first FIFA event in the country at Jawahar Lal Nehru Stadium. Mr Goel said government have made sure the tickets are priced very nominally. He said people can buy a World Cup ticket for less than fifty rupees, so there is no reason not to come and support this tournament in large numbers. Mr Goel said, he do not see this tournament as the conclusion, rather it is the start of the next revolution in Indian football. The Under-17 World Cup will be staged in six cities across India from 6th October. The 24-team tournament will feature an Indian team for the first time in a FIFA event. The matches will be held in six venues, Kolkata, Mumbai, Delhi, Guwahati, Goa and Kochi, across 23 days until 28th October.
