PSG will be guests against Arsenal. |
PSG will travel to London for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final on the morning of April 30. However, the French club complained that they were only allocated 2,500 tickets for the match at the Emirates, lower than the 3,000 tickets PSG received for the group stage match last October.
France Football reported that PSG had complained to UEFA, saying that according to regulations, clubs must allocate tickets equivalent to 5% of the stadium's capacity to away fans. The 2,500 tickets PSG received before the first leg of the semi-final were only equivalent to about 4%, which did not meet UEFA's standards.
This left PSG unhappy. According to L'Equipe , PSG's request for an additional 500 tickets was later rejected by Arsenal. Arsenal explained that the decision stemmed from security concerns, and also mentioned the London Marathon event taking place just 2 days before the semi-final.
However, PSG believes Arsenal played unfairly and will continue to file a complaint with UEFA.
The match between Arsenal and PSG is very much watched, because in the classification stage at the beginning of the season, the "Gunners" easily defeated the Ligue 1 champions with a score of 2-0.
However, Luis Enrique's side are now in a different league, having beaten Liverpool in the last 16 and Aston Villa in the quarter-finals. PSG's impressive form promises a tense encounter at the Emirates.
