They registered 17 million ticket requests in twenty days during that first phase, but in total there will be no more than a little more than two million tickets available to attend the first world football organized in an Arab country.
The final, scheduled for December 18, is the match that had aroused the most interest, with 1.8 million requests.
According to the sales modalities decided by the organizers, a lottery system allows international applicants to buy tickets for a price starting at $69 (61 euros) for the group stage matches.
Residents in qatar have access to a preferential price category, which starts at 11 dollars (less than 10 euros).
The price of a ticket for the final can reach 1,607 dollars (1,400 euros).
The FIFA expect to raise more than $500 million from ticket sales, retransmission rights and other commercial income linked to the world.
The next phase of ticket sales will open on April 5 at 9:00 a.m. GMT, a few days after the draw for the World Cup is held in Doha on Friday, April 1 (4:00 p.m. GMT).
“In this next phase of sale, fans will be able to choose their tickets based on the match schedule”specifies the FIFA.
