Director General of the National Sports Authority (NSA), Yaw Ampofo Ankrah, has announced that there will be no ticket sales at the stadium on matchday for Ghana’s crucial 2026 World Cup qualifier against Mali.
The Black Stars are set to host The Eagles on Monday, September 8, in Matchday 8 of the qualification campaign.
Ampofo Ankrah cited past challenges with seating and crowd control, particularly during Ghana’s previous home fixture in March, as the reason for the decision. He stressed the need to prevent last-minute rushes and congestion 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," he told the press.
“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 added.
Kick-off is scheduled for 19:00 GMT. A win for the Black Stars is crucial to bolster their chances of qualifying for next year’s tournament, which will be hosted across the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
