Argentina v Australia Ticket Info to Be Released "Next Week"

Ticketing info for the highly anticipated friendly between Argentina and Australia taking place at Gongti in June is to be released sometime next week, according to a WeChat post from an account which appears to be run by the event organizer.

The announcement, posted to 2023 Football Championship Tour (2023足球冠军行), doesn't specify a date or time. It's just short and sweet, reading: "Event ticketing information will be officially announced next week, stay tuned!"

The match will see World Cup 2022 winners Argentina, to be led by star player Lionel Messi, play Australia in what's a little more than a simple friendly, with Argentina having beaten Australia 2-1 in the World Cup’s Round of 16 last year. This meant elimination for Australia and propelled Argentina forward to their eventual Cup win against France.

Tickets are likely to be hot, and with recent incidents of tickets selling out anywhere from five minutes to five seconds due to things like scalping, it's best to plan ahead if you want to snag seats for this one.
