Has an a-league club ever sold out a stadium on their debut before? If not then it would be massive if Auckland would be the first
According to Auckland FC, 20,000 tickets have been snapped up for their inaugural game, putting the expansion club on track for a sell-out. Would easily surpass the highest attendance of the previous two expansion clubs Western United (10,128) and Macarthur (7,723).

To be the highest ever inaugural game, they would need to beat 25,208.
The NZ Warriors had sell outs all season long and highest crowd they achieved was 24,295. So it would take some book fudging to beat it.
