There were tickets for a soccer match at 50 euros but Beney would also have to buy at least two tickets for two additional events. Available tickets included basketball or handball at 150 euros , swimming at 230 euros and a whopping 690 euros for a qualifying event in track and field.Beney was disappointed and said her son's enthusiasm for attending their home Olympics on his 10th birthday vanished as they logged off without buying anything.
