The president of Eintracht calls Sánchez Pizjuán “mickey mouse stadium”
It may seem like a joke but it's not.. Peter Fischer, President of Eintracht Frankfurt has classified Sánchez Pizjuán, Sevilla fiefdom, as a “mickey mouse stadium“. And for the top leader of the German team, the 43.883 sevilla stadium capacity spectators, there are few to host the UEFA Cup final that will be played this Wednesday 18 May 2022.
“190.000 fans will not be able to be in this Mickey Mouse stadium”
According to the president of Eintracht, team that already visited Seville but to play at Villmarín against Betis, your club has received almost 200.000 entry requests of which you can only give demand to 10.000 since UEFA has only distributed this amount per club and has kept the rest for commitments and for sale at the box office. And that, It has bothered the German president who does not understand why the final is going to be played in such a small stadium in his opinion..
From the Rangers side it is estimated that some 100.000 requests to be present at the final in Seville. But as in the case of the Germans, just 10.000 of those tickets have traveled to Glasgow so, as in the case of Eintracht's, many have traveled to the city of Seville without entry in search of luck.
Seville has others 2 stadiums
In the Andalusian city there are others 2 stadiums that exceed Sánchez Pizjuán in capacity. The La Cartuja stadium with 57.721 spectators and Benito Villamarín, the home of Real Betis that goes to the 60.200 spectators. Something that has greatly bothered Fisher, who did not hesitate to describe Pizjuán as mickey mouse stadium.
