As anticipation builds for the thrilling clash between Ghana's Black Stars and Angola's Palancas Negras in the first round of the AFCON qualifiers, football fans across Ghana are gearing up for what promises to be an electrifying encounter. The match, scheduled for September 5 at Kumasi's iconic Baba Yara Sports Stadium, carries high stakes, not just for the teams on the pitch but also for the fans in the stands. While the Ministry of Youth and Sports introduction of e-ticketing as part of its digitalisation efforts has received very positive feedback from the football fans and attendees, concerns continue to linger over the poor experience of fans when attending a football match at the stadium. From braving long queues, chaotic ticket checking booths, ineffective security measures, and unnecessary struggles just to get through the gate to a seat, fans have had to deal with a lot of inconveniences just to watch the Black Stars play. These have led to overcrowded entry points and, at times, many fans missing the opening moments of the game due to inefficient ticket verification.
