Win Tickets to the Manchester United vs. Ajax Cape Town Match

How happy would you be to get your hands on two grandstand tickets to see the Red Devils battle it out with the Urban Warriors?


We want to know; or more aptly, we want to see.

In cahoots with DHL, the official logistics partner and training kit sponsor behind the Red Devils, we’re giving away two grandstand tickets to see Manchester United take on Ajax Cape Town at the Cape Town Stadium on Saturday, 21 July 2012; plus, the lucky winner will also take home a pair of Manchester United merchandise hampers that include a t-shirt, cap, scarf, lanyard, keyring and drawstring bag. 

Though, with 659 million Manchester United supporters worldwide – 173 million of which are in Africa alone – finding the ultimate fan to make two tickets richer feels a bit like counting Spanish UEFA cup goals (there’s just too many to keep track).

So, in order to make sure such an unbeatable prize falls into the right hands, we’re asking contestants to follow a few easy instructions. 

So, ahem, grin and bear if you’re keen to win.

1. Think long and hard about how happy two FREE grandstand tickets and two Manchester United hampers would make you.
2. Take a picture that captures your unrivalled euphoria.
