Tickets for European Cup final on sale

Fans wishing to book their place early for the Heineken Cup final at Dublin's Lansdowne Road now have their chance, after tournament organisers released 6,000 tickets for the match that takes place on May 24.

Those tickets will go on sale from January 10, priced between €21 and €57, with European Rugby Cup (ERC) bosses hoping for a capacity 48,000 crowd, following last year's sellout at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, when Leicester pipped Munster in a dramatic finale.
