Our seats waiting for football fans arriving at the Super Cup

It was opened in autumn last year. The Hungarian facility was one of the arenas where the UEFA European Championship was supposed to be played in 2020. The calendar of football events was, however, ruined by the coronavirus pandemic. In March both national league and European Cup games were cancelled. A few months later the players resumed the games, but the stadiums remained closed to the public. Champions League and European Cup, to mention just two, were played in front of an empty stadium. The former was won by Bayern Munich from Germany, while the latter belonged to the Spanish Sevilla FC.

In late August UEFA decided that the Super Cup, a meeting of the two abovementioned giants, would be played on 24th September in Budapest. For the first time in a few months football fans will be allowed to enter the stadium. This time there will be no crowds, though - the number of spectators was reduced to 30% of the capacity of the stadium, which means that Puskás Aréna will hold ca. 20 thousand spectators this time.
