Tickets for 29€ went on sale here in Helsinki at 05.00hrs your time.
Two hours later, they were all sold out. I was mightily ****** off as I only got on it at 09.00 (7a.m. UK). I called the ticket service to confirm. Yeps. All sold out.
If you've booked a flight already, you will be able to see the match on TV here. Little consolation, but I'll put up a guide to some of the best bars and stuff soon.
I'm pretty sure there'll be a black market for tickets. They tend to get sold on here (Finnish e-bay type thing)

His father was a promoter too. Why not write and tell him what you think of him? Can't find any contact for him yet but I'll keep trying.

That's really sweary Finnish, btw.
