Why hosting the 2013 Champion’s League final is more of an honour than you might think

|

The FA must stand up for itself in matters of retrospective punishmentA magnificent stadium for a final to be played at, Situated in London: the place to be for the loudest atmosphere, true legends of the modern game have played there including the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Lionel Messi and Wayne Rooney. The most recent game held there saw Barcelona face off against Manchester United and came away with a 3-1 victory in the Champions League Final.

I’m talking of course, about Wembley Stadium – the theatre that plays host to all the finals in England from the likes of Play off games, Community Shield and Champions League Finals.

There have been a few questions over the years about the prices of tickets and the man at the end of this is no other than Mr Platini. He has made a public apology for the prices in April where the Champions league final cheapest ticket prices were £150 and administration fee of £26 also being the same price for a Adult and a Child.

Platini says that tickets prices should have fallen in price by 2013 and maybe introducing a Family ticket so it is more affordable for the less fortunate.

Having the Champion’s League 2013 final at Wembley stadium will be a big thing for England and also help the country out. The money they will be making will help pay for more and better facilities and help keep the safety of every person to a very high standard. There are only a few more steps up from this and that will be having Wembley as the final stadium in the Euros and the World cup. This as people would say would be the icing on the cake. If the Europa 2013 became a success this could be very possible.

To be given the chance again from just having it in may 2011 is an amazing achievement and an honour, that must have be proven that England did a very good job of the previous Champions League.

This is a brilliant thing to happen to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the football association. Which was founded in 1863 which holds the record for the oldest of all national football associations. This is a very big year for the English FA and it is an absolute honour for this to be handed to them. They now know what to expect as running earlier this year and now they have to try and improve on the mistakes which were made and hopefully make it even more of a success.
