PSG v Roma away allocation sells out within three hours after police cut capacity to 1,500

Roma's away allocation for the clash at Paris Saint-Germain has sold out, with 1,500 tickets gone within three hours of the sale opening. The Champions League fixture is scheduled for Wednesday 25 November at 21:00 at the Parc des Princes. The match carries significant weight for Gian Piero Gasperini's side, both in terms of prestige and in the standings. Roma have collected four points from their opening four matches, so qualification is still to be secured. Facing the reigning European champions makes the fixture a major test for the squad. The away section's capacity was reduced from what had been planned for public order reasons, given the friendship between Paris ultras and Napoli's supporters. Roma fans responded strongly, with the 1,500 available tickets selling out in the first three hours of the sale.

Roma's allocation of 1,500 tickets for the away sector at Paris Saint-Germain sold out within three hours of the sale opening. Several fans were left in the queue without managing to secure a ticket. The Parc des Princes away sector can hold more than 2,300 supporters, but the capacity has been reduced at the request of the French police for public order reasons. Security is on maximum alert for the trip because of the friendship between PSG's ultras and those of Napoli. Roma face Luis Enrique's side on 25 November at 21:00.

UEFA's disciplinary committee has fined Roma 20,000 euros over incidents involving a section of the club's fans before and after the European match in Manchester. The sanction also includes a partial restriction on ticket sales for the away section at a future European away game. If the sanction is applied, the share of tickets allocated to Roma supporters would be cut from 5% to 2.5% of the host stadium's capacity. The restriction has been suspended for two years from the date of the decision, meaning it would only take effect if Roma fans commit further violations during that period. There are no such problems for Roma's trip to Paris on 25 November, when the club face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League. Roma supporters will have access to the full away allocation, with around 2,500 tickets available to back the team at the Parc des Princes.
