Football fans jammed the phone lines at Derby County this morning - eager to get their hands on tickets for England's under-21 international against Wales in March.
The European Championship qualifier will take place at the iPro Stadium on March 5 with a 6pm kick-off.
Tickets went on sale at 10am and many fans had to wait in excess of 20 minutes to get through to the ticket sales office.
One fan, Julia Western, said: "I made the call just after 10 and was holding for almost 20 minutes.
"The helpful and polite guy on the other end of the line said it was madness and that he didn't even work in the ticket office but was drafted in to help man the phones.
"It's little wonder they are popular - it's just £20 for a family of four and it will be a great game."
It will be the sixth time the Rams have hosted an England under-21 game and past games have attracted big crowds.
Tickets for the game are priced at £10 for adults and £5 for under 18s. To book call 0871 472 1884.
