DOHA: Around 60 percent of the Amir Cup final tickets have been sold, QFA said Wednesday.

This was disclosed at a technical coordination meeting overseeing the Amir Cup semifinals to be played this week.

Khalid Al Kuwari, Marketing and Communications Director of QFA, said the meeting was called to confirm all preparations are in place ahead of the two semifinals.

The meeting was attended by Ali Hassan Al-Salat, Head of Communication Department, Ali Hammoud Al Nuaimi, Head of Competitions Department, as well as representatives of clubs Ahmed Al-Ayidi, Jassim Al Ali, Ismail Ahmed, Al-Marri and Ministry of Interior officials.

Among the topics that came under discussion was the gates dedicated to fans of the clubs featuring in the semifinals.

It was also said the fans must cooperate with security officials while entering the match venue.

In the first semifinal, Al Sadd will host Al Rayyan at Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium on May 11 while in the other last-four clash, Al Sailiyah face Al Duhail at the same venue the next day.

Officials at the meeting encouraged fans to turn up in large numbers to support their chosen teams. The officials also confirmed all media preparations have also been completed.

“The discussions we all had were very useful. Our detailed discussions reflect QFA’s thorough readiness for the last three matches of the season,” Al Kuwari said.

“We wish all clubs the very best,” he added.

Al Kuwari said 60 percent of the tickets for the Amir Cup final – to be played at Al Wakra Stadium on May 16- had been sold.

The remaining tickets could be bought during the semifinals later this week, he added.
