Flamengo and Estudiantes start selling tickets this Thursday for the highly anticipated first leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals, scheduled for the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium.
The quest for a spot in the continental grand final reaches a crucial chapter behind the scenes. Starting at 10 AM this Thursday, Flamengo fans can secure their places for the first-leg clash against Estudiantes in the Libertadores semifinals.
The match is scheduled for October 15 at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) at the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, located in La Plata. A packed stadium is expected for the first encounter that brings together two of South American football’s most traditional clubs in pursuit of a place in the final.
Change in ticket sales dynamics
Unlike what usually happens in international matches, Flamengo‘s board chose not to purchase the visitor ticket allocation in advance.
As a result, ticket sales are under the full responsibility of Estudiantes. The purchasing process will be carried out digitally, directly on the Argentine club’s official platform, requiring extra attention from red-black supporters during registration and payment.
The price set to attend the match in the sector designated for Brazilians is 70,000 Argentine pesos, which is equivalent to approximately R$ 238 at the current exchange rate.
Step-by-step for the fan
To secure access to the stadium in Argentina, fans must visit Estudiantes‘ official ticketing portal and create a prior registration.
Next, they need to select the specific event for the visiting public, choose from the available sector options, and complete the financial transaction through the integrated platform.
The M360 Team highlights that the final QR Code for entry into the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium will only be released on the day of the match and will be stored in the purchased tickets tab on the website.
Stadium sector options
Flamengo fans traveling to La Plata will be able to choose between two different locations in the Argentine stadium, according to each group’s preference.
The sector called ‘Codo Visitante’ will serve as the main gathering point for the Rio club’s organized supporter groups throughout the match.
On the other hand, the ‘Tribuna 115 Visitante’ presents itself as an alternative with a privileged lateral view of the pitch, ideal for those who prefer to watch the 90 minutes with a broader tactical perspective.
Expectations for the clash
The Brazilian club’s decision not to intermediate the sale occurred due to operational limitations presented by the company responsible for Estudiantes‘ ticketing.
Despite this, the Argentine institution assured full support to visitors to guarantee smooth access to the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium.
The return leg will take place weeks later, but the result in Argentina will set the tone for the teams in the fight for their continental dream.
