“It’s true that the ticket have been sold out. We released the ticket on Tuesday and Wednesay afternoon, all have been sold,” Spokesman Hamid Issaka said

“I went to the office to enquire and I was surprised with the rate at which the ticket was sold.”

The scenario clearly gives an indication of how local fans are anxious to feel the stadium in their numbers ahead of the World Cup playoffs against the North African country.

The Ghanaians are bent on securing a convincing win against the Pharaohs at the Baba Yara stadium on October 15 before the return fixture on November 19.
