Tottenham Hotspur have announced further details regarding the live screening of the Champions League final at their new stadium.

Last week, Spurs stated on their website that the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will be open to full capacity for the final, giving as many fans as possible who are not able to get to Madrid the chance to come together for the match.

In an article on their official site, Tottenham confirmed the ticketing process for the live screening, with three sales windows – for season ticket holders, One Hotspur+ members and One Hotspur members.

Spurs also said they would be opening all areas of the stadium at 6pm – two hours ahead of the 8pm (UK time) kickoff at Madrid’s Wanda Metropolitano – and added the club has also obtained a licence for fans to take alcohol to their seats.

One update that a number of Lilywhites were hoping for, however, was not mentioned – that of putting screens on the pitch, with the article saying the live coverage would be “via our giant HD screens and televisions located throughout the concourses and premium areas”.

A number of Spurs fans took to Twitter to have their say on the matter:

Spurs will take on Premier League rivals Liverpool in the Spanish capital on Saturday 1 June for the right to lift Europe’s premier club trophy.
