Local football body, Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) has a new twist as the 2014 World Cup qualifier game against Senegal and 2013 African Cup of Nations return leg alongside Congo Brazzaville will have joint tickets. Both fixtures are slated for June 9 and 16 in turn at Mandela National Stadium in turn as the Uganda Cranes juggle their way to world and continental football showpieces.
In a statement released by FUFA Spokesman, Rogers Mulindwa says each ticket will cost Shs. 25, 000 for open stands and Shs.80, 000 for pavilion. Foreign based printers will have to print two separate coupons on the same ticket clearly indicated for use during each of the two games. Mulindwa says it will save Cranes’ fans from transport expenses especially those from upcountry.
The tickets will be on sale from 13 identified points within at least 72 hours to the match kick offs at Hard Ware World Ntinda, City Oil petrol stations, Shell, Kobil, Total petrol stations, City Shoppers Super Market in Mukono.
