No Singapore-Vietnam tickets to be sold at Jalan Besar stadium on match-day
All home tickets for the game were sold out on Sunday (Dec 22), slightly over six hours after sales began.
Fans formed snaking queues at the Jalan Besar stadium well in advance of the noon start time, some having waited overnight.
Tickets – priced in three categories, starting at S$24 (US$18) for the lowest tier and S$49 for the highest – could only be bought on-site at the stadium, a measure that the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) said was to ensure “fair ticket distribution” for supporters.
The first leg of the semi-final will kick off at the 6,000-seater Jalan Besar Stadium at 9pm on Thursday.
Singapore held Malaysia to a 0-0 draw on Friday, booking their progress to the semi-finals, the furthest the Lions have reached in the competition since 2021.
