English soccer’s governing body says it more than doubled Poland fans’ ticket allocation for tomorrow’s World Cup qualifier to prevent them buying seats in home sections of the London stadium.
Poland’s number of tickets at Wembley was increased to 18,000 from 8,000 because of high demand, the Football Association said. England needs a victory from its final group match to guarantee a place in Brazil next year, while Poland cannot now qualify.
