Real Sociedad handle 627 requests for their first European trips

Real Sociedad will have plenty of support on their first European away trips of the season. As the club confirmed, once the application window closed, they can state that all requests will be met and that there will be no ticket draw.

In total, there were 627 requests counting both applicants and companions for two matches. For the game against Union Saint-Gilloise in Belgium, 383 requests were submitted; for the clash against Lillestrom SK in Norway, 244. Mundo Deportivo also notes that they did not reach the nearly 1,500 tickets that were available when combining both trips.

No draw for Belgium and Norway

The process involves a deposit: according to Mundo Deportivo, anyone who applied paid a deposit, which will be deducted from the final ticket cost. Tickets will be delivered digitally to the email linked to the user’s profile in the club’s season-ticket portal.

More time to apply

The club added that from this Thursday, the application period will be extended until all tickets are used up, with the same requirement that applicants must be members or RS Fan.
