The fifth and final batch of tickets for the World Cup available to fans in South Africa no longer has entries for the final, the opening match and the two semi-finals, FIFA said on Friday.
Tickets sold out just a day after being put on sale at official points of maximum authority of football and some banks. In total, 100 thousand tickets were sold, of which about 90% were bought by South Africans.
For the second consecutive day, long lines are logged across the eleven outlets accredited by FIFA World Cup in nine offices, and on Friday there were not riots at the box office.
On Thursday, however, a pensioner died in a queue in Cape Town, one man and one woman fainted, and many people protested when the online sales system malfunctioned. Confusion, policing and death marked the day due to falling prices of the tickets and marketing in the masses, the poor people got excited and queues have formed in the early hours earlier to ensure the entries.
The Cup 2010 will be the first Cup ever held in Africa and South Africa is being pressed to the realization of this World Cup takes place without unpleasant contingencies, no delays in delivery of infrastructure and delivery of the stadium.
