A referee kitted out in a yellow jersey and brandishing a red card stands amidst the action in the busy image.
Steel whistles, shiny trophies, black and white footballs clutter the scene, making the ticket’s discovery a true test of observation skills.
The textured bristles of the grass – which appear to be hand painted – on the pitch also add to the complexity of the challenge.
If you manage to find the prize within the allocated time – well done, you are now a puzzle-solving prodigy with 20/20 vision.
For those who still find themselves stumped after 45 seconds, fear no more, as we reveal the location of the ticket below.
The solution to the brainteaser lies in the middle and toward the bottom of the image, nestled within the white-painted grass.

SeatPick co-founder Gilad Zilberman said: ‘If you are unfortunate in securing your tickets from the official channels, look into authoritative third-party resale sites such as SeatPick, where you can compare ticket sites to find the best deals on the market.
‘Tickets for this match on SeatPick start from £1,505 each up to £201,365, with the average ticket costing £3,442’
Zilberman warned: ‘Remember, be wary of scam sites and never allow someone to send you a screenshot of a ticket (as these are invalid), or send payment before receiving tickets. Remember, if something looks too good to be true, it probably is!’
Feel for another mind-boggling challenge? Only people with laser-sharp eyesight will be able to find the camouflaged bee in the sea of beautiful flowers.
The creators of this tricky optical illusion say most players manage to discover the bee in 28 seconds or more – but do you think you could beat them?
