The Guinea national football team, also known as the Syli National, is set to play against Kenya at the Stade du 28 Septembre in Conakry on October 1. This match marks the team's return to playing at home after a four-year absence. The encounter is part of the second day of qualifiers for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations. The Stade du 28 Septembre has undergone renovation and temporary homologation, allowing it to host the match.
The Fédération Guinéenne de Football (Feguifoot) has announced the opening of ticket sales for the match in collaboration with the Ministry of Sports. The ticket prices have been set, ranging from 100,000 to 2,000,000 GNF, depending on the category. The categories include Gradins Virage at 100,000 GNF, Gradins Jaune at 200,000 GNF, Tribune Couverte at 300,000 GNF, and Siège Premium (VIP) at 2,000,000 GNF. Each ticket is nominative and includes specific details such as access gate, turnstile, row, and seat number for numbered seating.
In an effort to modernize the management of sports events in Guinea, ticket sales will be conducted entirely online. The commercialization of tickets has been entrusted to the digital platform Billet Facile, where supporters can purchase their tickets. The Stade du 28 Septembre is now equipped with electronic control equipment, including ticket scanning and VIP/VVIP passes, aimed at securing the venue and streamlining the flow of spectators.
To avoid congestion around the stadium, an access plan has been put in place. Spectators are advised to use the entrances corresponding to their ticket category. For example, those with tickets for the Gradins and popular categories should enter through the gate located near the rails or the one next to the Dixinn commune seat. Those with Tribune Couverte tickets should enter from the side of the terrace, facing the Total Dixinn gas station.
The electronic control system is configured according to the assigned sector, meaning no ticket can be validated at an inappropriate gate. The Feguifoot reminds spectators that purchasing an ordinary ticket does not grant access to VIP and VVIP areas. Authorities are urging supporters to arrive at the stadium in advance, respect security instructions, and follow the guidance of on-site orientation personnel to ensure the event runs smoothly.
The match is expected to draw a significant crowd, with the stadium's facilities upgraded to handle the influx of spectators. The return of the Syli National to playing at home is highly anticipated, and the event is seen as an opportunity to showcase Guinea's football and its passionate fan base. Supporters are eager to cheer on their team and experience the excitement of a live match at the Stade du 28 Septembre.
As the event approaches, authorities and Feguifoot officials are working together to ensure that all logistical and security arrangements are in place. The match between Guinea and Kenya promises to be an exciting encounter, and fans are looking forward to a thrilling experience at the Conakry stadium.
