Morocco’s national team supporters expressed anger and frustration after they found out that tickets are sold out for Friday’s game against USA, in the quarter final of the men’s tournament at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The supporters said that it is impossible to find tickets to watch the game as Morocco’s previous matches attracted too many new fans and attention from other nations.
Some supporters who had previously acquired match tickets used the “black market” to resale them on websites other than the official platform, at inflated rates that reached 400 euros (about 4,000 Moroccan dirhams) each.
The match will take place tomorrow, Friday, starting at 2:00 pm, at the “Parc des Princes” stadium in Paris.
Morocco advanced to the quarterfinal after passing the group stage with six points from two wins against Argentina 2-1, and Iraq 3-0, while the Atlas Lions lost to Ukraine 2-1.
