Bayern Fans Win Ticket Price Battle for Shakhtar Match

Shakhtar Donetsk reduces ticket prices for Bayern Munich Champions League game after fan protest.

Bayern Munich fans successfully boycotted high ticket prices for the Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk.
Originally, ticket prices were set at 105 euros for a seat and 52 euros for standing, which have now been reduced to 45 euros and 26 euros respectively.
The match will take place on December 10, 2024, at the Veltins-Arena in Gelsenkirchen due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
Fans had initially ordered 55,000 tickets, but cancellations reduced this number to 19,000, prompting Shakhtar to reconsider their pricing strategy.
The fan-led boycott highlights ongoing concerns about fair and affordable ticket pricing in European football.
