Fifa has announced that an extra 150,000 World Cup tickets will go on sale on Friday (May 28) after 96 per cent of seats were sold.
Fifa secretary-general Jerome Valcke said that if the additional tickets were sold, the tournament would reach almost 98 per cent capacity across the 10 stadiums.
A total of almost 2.9 million seats were available for the World Cup, which runs for a month from June 11.
Valcke said the additional tickets were from inventory that soccer's governing body had held back until now for its own use.
Reuters reports that the number of tickets available for any stadium would vary from 200 upwards.
Valcke said last week that organisers were having trouble filling the smaller Nelspruit, Polokwane and Port Elizabeth stadiums for some matches.
