- Kenyan fans failed to get tickets for Kenya vs Madagascar CHAN quarter-final.
- Many turned their attention to Tanzania vs Morocco at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium.
- Some plan to buy tickets but not attend, leaving the stadium empty and affecting Tanzania’s morale.
- Tickets were reportedly sold for as low as Ksh 100 (Tsh 200,000).
- The CHAN website in Kenya crashed due to overwhelming demand.
Fans frustrated by missing out on Kenya’s game have moved to target the Tanzania vs Morocco match. The goal is to occupy tickets and prevent local fans from filling the stadium, hoping it will hurt Tanzania’s spirit.
Videos circulating online show Kenyans buying tickets in large numbers. The tactic is seen as a clever way to keep Benjamin Mkapa Stadium emptier than expected, limiting the home crowd’s support.
The CHAN ticketing system in Kenya could not handle the demand, leaving many disappointed. While some fans gave up, others remain determined to make sure their team, Harambee Stars, gets a psychological advantage, even from afar.
