Football’s governing body Fifa announced that the cheapest ticket for overseas fans for the final on 13 July was $440 (\u00a3288) and the most expensive $990 (\u00a3650).<\/p>\n
The tournament starts on 12 June next year, with the first game being played in Sao Paulo.<\/p>\n
Tickets will go on sale from 20 August.<\/p>\n
Fans have until 10 October to apply and a ballot will be held to decide which of these applications are successful.<\/p>\n
Only later will tickets be sold on a first come, first served basis.<\/p>\n
In total about three million tickets will be available for fans.<\/p>\n
{{‘No surprises’}}<\/p>\n
For Brazilian nationals the cheapest tickets start at $15. These are only available for students, those aged over 60 and people on social welfare programmes. For other Brazilians tickets start at $30.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
The governing body had previously said that tickets in Brazil would be the “cheapest ever”.<\/p>\n
The Fifa ticket website will include a map of the ground that shows the location of different categories of tickets.<\/p>\n
