Football's governing body Fifa announced that the cheapest ticket for overseas fans for the final on 13 July was $440 (£288) and the most expensive $990 (£650). The tournament starts on 12 June next year, with the first game being played in Sao Paulo. Tickets will go on sale from 20 August. Fans have until 10 October to apply and a ballot will be held to decide which of these applications are successful.
Only later will tickets be sold on a first come, first served basis. In total about three million tickets will be available for fans. For Brazilian nationals the cheapest tickets start at $15. These are only available for students, those aged over 60 and people on social welfare programmers. For other Brazilians tickets start at $30. The lowest price paid for a ticket in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa was $20, also for group stage matches in the special category set aside exclusively for residents. The governing body had previously said that tickets in Brazil would be the "cheapest ever".
The Fifa ticket website will include a map of the ground that shows the location of different categories of tickets. Daily-sun
