Mount the protest of Napoli fans for ticket prices for the Champions League round of 16 match against Barcelona. Under accusation, in particular, the prices of the curves, at 70 euros (without discounts for subscribers), while the fans, given the swinging vintage so far, expected curves at 50 euros and distinct at 100 (as in the eighth of three years ago against Real Madrid).

The € 70 corner ticket for Barça is the most expensive price ever, but Napoli sources recall that the same price was imposed three years ago in the second phase of the sale of the coupons against Real Madrid and that the club practiced a low price policy and discounts throughout this season. But the fans are in an uproar and someone republishes on the social media a banner of the ultras of some time ago that outside the San Paolo showed the writing "We want the popular sector".

There are also those who defend the club. "These are important prices, but you don't go to see any team", writes a fan who is already enjoying the show with Messi and his companions, while others point out that for Inter-Barcelona this year the curves cost 80 euros (and was still in the group stage).

The club then insists on the concept that "if a fan is loyal, he will not only come to see Barcelona and therefore must evaluate the pricing policy as a whole". Always sources from Naples recall the promotion of the curve at 2 euros for the quarter-final of the Italian Cup with Lazio for season ticket holders or those who had purchased the ticket for Juventus, anticipating that a similar promotion will also be launched for the semifinal of Italian Cup.
