Man City struggling to shift FA Cup semi-final tickets

  /  autty

Manchester City are unlikely to sell all their tickets for Saturday’s FA Cup semi-final against Brighton.

The Premier League champions have only sold around 25,000 seats for their fourth trip to Wembley this season.

City have had to return 2,000 extra tickets, sent in addition to their allocation of more than 30,000, back to the Football Association.

The club say those are the more expensive tickets, with prices going up to £120, and all categories of tickets remain on general sale.

Pep Guardiola’s side have three London games in eight days, with a Champions League date at Tottenham’s new stadium and a trip to Crystal Palace following the semi-final.

Fans have also argued that travelling back to Manchester is the cause of angst after the 5:30pm kick-off, with the last train north from London Euston scheduled for 9:24pm.
