The highly anticipated Champions League match between Real Madrid and Juventus, scheduled for October 22 at Santiago Bernabéu, is already causing a stir off the pitch. The recently unveiled ticket prices have left a section of the Madrid fanbase frustrated.
Price Breakdown and Fan Reaction
For those eager to witness the showdown, the cheapest ticket available to the general public is priced at 100 euros, located in the fourth tier of both Fondos. However, “socios” (members) who are not season ticket holders enjoy a reduced rate of 70 euros in the same area.
