With the capacity of 81365, the Borussia Dortmund’s “Signal Iduna Park” is proudly in fourth place in Europe, with only Barcelona, Wembley in London and Real Madrid boasting bigger stadiums, while Stade de France in Paris is just below BVB with an 80.698 seats.And while it’s often possible to find a ticket for Barcelona matches (despite the high price), Borussia fans can only dream about that, as their tickets are sold out way in advance. Dortmund also brags about the famous “Yellow wall” with a capacity of 25,000 supporters, which is the largest grandstand for standing spectators in European football. ##NAJAVA_MECA_9945944##So, if you are so lucky to get a chance to be in Dortmund and get a ticket, a spectacle is guaranteed. And yet, the Villarreal fans obviously don’t think so, as their request for a match day ticket was more than modest – 39!Champions League is here: PSG aim for a three-peatVillarreal will play in the Champions League again and the first opponent is Borussia Dortmund, so their fans were bound to get a ticket, as their allocation is 5% of the total capacity, but only 39 applied. Around 4020 remaining tickets will remain unsold, and while Villarreal is not so big (only 54000 inhabitants), this number is still very low.That also means that the “Signal Iduna Park” will not be sold out, which is always the case, so ‘only’ around 77000 fans will be present. However, the home team used this awkward situation to their benefit. BVB relocated these 39 fans to a section of the West Stand and was able to allocate the standing area in the lower tier (usually occupied by away fans) to its own supporters.UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUEROUND 1Tuesday19.45: (1.75) AEK (3.90) LASK (4.50)19.45: (2.65) Club Brugge (3.30) Aston Villa (2.70)22.00: (5.00) Porto (4.00) Man.City (1.70) 22.00: (1.75) Dortmund (4.00) Villareal (4.20) 22.00: (2.30) Lille (3.40) Betis (3.10) 22.00: (1.60) Real Madrid (4.40) Inter (5.00) Wednesday19.45: (1.08) Barcelona (13.0) Feyenoord (20.0) 19.45: (1.23) Stuttgart (6.75) Viking (11.0) 22.00: (1.75) Liverpool (3.90) Atl.Madrid (4.50) 22.00: (4.90) Napoli (3.60) Arsenal (1.75) 22.00: (1.05) PSG (14.0) Slovan B.
