On the afternoon of October 14, just a few hours before the match between Vietnam and Nepal started at 7:30 p.m., black market ticket prices had increased many times compared to the original price.
According to Lao Dong, A-list tickets are being sold for 1 million to 1.4 million VND - more than 3 times higher than the original 400,000 VND. stands C and D also increased from 200,000 VND to about 400,000 VND, depending on the seating location. Some ticket brokers said that the remaining number of tickets was very small, and collecting a large number was almost impossible.
The reason for the scarce tickets comes from the fact that the Vietnamese team rarely plays at Thong Nhat Stadium in recent years - most recently at the Hung Thinh Cup 2022. In addition, stand B is being closed for repairs, leading to a significant decrease in the number of tickets issued.
The ticket fever reflects the great attraction of the Vietnam national team in their return to the familiar football field. Fans are looking forward to the performance of coach Kim Sang-sik and his team after the 3-1 victory in the first leg against Nepal.
The match took place on the evening of October 14 in Group F of the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers, promising to bring opportunities for many young players to try their hand at the national team.
