But it is understandable they need the real home ground advantage.

Even though AFC have been diabolical at home this year and are better away.

Eden Park can wait for Spurs.

There is no way and Aleague match is selling out Eden park - even the final! It seats 50,000, or up to 60k if expanded. Just not happenning even for the Black Knights.

The tickets sold out in 6 minutes upon being released to the general public with no real hype or marketing. If Adelaide can get 50k to see a final no reason why Auckland can’t - hell they sold 26000 shirts in their first year only and not every one attending will wear the kit.

Alas we will never know. If however they win, then the Spurs game will reach that level.

Even if it’s to watch their kids.
