ZIFA announces ticket prices for upcoming Warriors, Young Warriors AFCON qualifiers

The Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) has announced ticket prices for the Warriors’ Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Equatorial Guinea.

Zimbabwe host the West Africans at the National Sports Stadium in Harare on 16 November. Kick-off is at 3pm.

Rest of Ground tickets will cost US$20 and VIP tickets US$100. Tickets can be bought online at tickets.zifa.co.zw.

The Under-23 side, the Young Warriors, will also play at the National Sports Stadium this month. They host Mali in the first leg of the 2027 AFCON Under-23 qualifying second round on 11 November, also at 3pm.

Tickets for that match will cost US$10 for Rest of Ground and US$50 for VIP.

The Young Warriors reached the second round after beating Mauritius 6-1 on aggregate, winning 2-0 and 4-1.

Earlier this month, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) gave ZIFA special, strictly conditional permission to admit up to 10,000 spectators per match at the National Sports Stadium.

That allowed fans in for the Mighty Warriors’ Women’s Olympic qualifier against Malawi on 13 October and for Scottland’s CAF Champions League tie against Atlético Petróleos de Luanda a few days later.

The permission followed a CAF ban on fans after a supporter died during the Warriors’ AFCON 2027 Group E qualifier against the Democratic Republic of Congo on 28 September.

The fan was hit and killed by a police vehicle at Gate 2 at around 6.30pm, half an hour after kick-off.

It is not yet clear how many spectators will be allowed in for the two matches in November.
