2006 World Cup Ticket Orders SkyRocket 

Ticket orders for the 2006 World Cup in Germany have already passed two million.

As of Thursday 24th Feb 2005, 320,000 separate applications had been received for a total of 2.2 million tickets. "Some matches are overbooked, the final in particular, but there are still tickets for the many group matches" said organising committee vice-president Horst R. Schmidt.

Only 812,000 tickets are up for grabs in the first sales window, which opened on February 1st and runs until March 31st 2005. Applications received will go into a draw on April 15th, with the order in which they are received making absolutely no difference.

Fans can apply for a maximum of 28 higher-priced tickets - up to four tickets per match for up to seven matches.

For the cheaper category tickets, the maximum is two tickets per match for up to three matches.
