National Sports Authority (NSA) Director-General Yaw Ampofo Ankrah has stated that tickets for Ghana’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Mali that is scheduled to be played at the Accra Sports Stadium won’t be sold at the match venue. He added that tickets would be available for purchase at the Black Star Square.
He made this clear in his address at a presser held in the lead up to the crucial game where he discussed a variety of issues in relation to the contest.
Ghana’s game against Mali kicks off at 19:00 GMT with the home team heading into the contest off a frustrating 1-1 draw with Chad while Mali bagged a commanding 3-0 win over Comoros.
In the wake of seating challenges and crowd control at the stadium stemming from Ghana’s last home game that was played in March, Yaw Ampofo Ankrah has proposed a series of measures including not selling tickets at the stadium.
“We intend not to have a rush as we did in the Ghana versus Chad game where a lot of fans came to the gates without tickets intending to buy tickets on the day.”
“There will be no ticket sold on Matchday [at the stadium] so if you do not have a ticket, don’t come to the stadium on Matchday; you will not get a ticket to buy on the day of the match” he said.
