The Club Deportivo Artístico Navalcarnero announced via social media that all tickets issued for the postponed Copa del Rey first-round match against Real Betis remain valid for the rescheduled fixture on Thursday, November 12, at the Estadio Santo Domingo de Alcorcón. The initial tie, originally scheduled for October 28, was postponed alongside 23 other cup fixtures following a fatal train crash in Toledo between Urda and Los Yébenes.
The fixture shift places the knockout match directly into the November international window. Consequently, Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini and his technical staff will miss several key players who have been called up by their respective national teams.
Refund Deadlines and Procedures for Alcorcón and Seville Supporters
Fans who cannot attend the rescheduled November 12 match have until Wednesday, November 4, at 20:00 local time to request a refund, according to the club statement. The recovery process differs depending on the original point of purchase.
Supporters who bought tickets in person must bring their physical ticket to the club offices at the Estadio Mariano González to process a refund via bank transfer. Those who purchased tickets online must submit their refund request directly through the original web portal where the transaction was completed. Meanwhile, Real Betis supporters who secured seats must handle their returns through upcoming procedures announced directly by the Seville-based club.
Original Ticket Allocation and Venue Capacity
When tickets first went on sale on October 20, mundobetis.com reported that the Estadio Santo Domingo de Alcorcón holds more than 5,000 spectators. General public tickets were priced at 30 euros for Fondo, 40 euros for Lateral, and 50 euros for Tribuna.
For the away section, Real Betis previously managed an allocation of 850 visitor tickets at a flat rate of 30 euros. The club distributed 595 seats to season ticket holders—split evenly between seniority and a randomized draw—while 85 seats went to ‘Soy Bético’ members with priority given to residents of the Community of Madrid. The remaining 170 tickets were allocated to fan clubs based on geographic proximity and a drawing.
International Break Impact on Real Betis
The rescheduling of the Copa del Rey tie to November 12 creates a challenging roster situation for Pellegrini. Because the match lands during an official FIFA international break, clubs frequently lose core squad members to national team duty.
