Ticket sales plan for the match between Vietnam and Australia
(Baonghean.vn) - The number of tickets that the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) plans to sell for the match between the Vietnam and Australia teams on September 7 at My Dinh Stadium is only about 4,000.
This number is equivalent to 1/10 of the capacity of My Dinh National Stadium. It is known that to prepare for this match, VFF has started working with the My Dinh Stadium Management Board this week to deploy the preparation work.
According to the schedule of Group B, the 2nd qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup in Asia, the Vietnamese team will play their first match at My Dinh Stadium on September 7, 5 days after the tour against Saudi Arabia. Due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, the home matches of the Vietnamese team must be carried out according to the "bubble" principle, minimizing contact between the Organizing Committee members as well as the 2 teams with the outside.

For fans, VFF has planned that only those who have been vaccinated or have a negative PCR test for Covid-19 will be allowed to enter the stadium, and the number is limited. It is expected that for the match against Australia, VFF can issue about 4,000 tickets, equivalent to 1/10 of the capacity of My Dinh Stadium. Thus, to own tickets to watch the Vietnamese team play, fans may have to compete very strongly, meeting many complicated requirements.
Speaking to the media, VFF General Secretary Le Hoai Anh said that the final plan has not yet been finalized. VFF is still waiting for the development of the epidemic as well as the decision of the authorities to make a detailed plan. According to Mr. Le Hoai Anh, allowing fans into the stadium must ensure maximum safety.
