Gaborone United (GU) sold 100 tickets and distributed an additional 100 in just three hours, as the club makes preparations to host Madagascar's Elgeco in a CAF Champions League fixture.

The match is slated to happen at the National Stadium on Saturday, with kick-off scheduled for 4pm. As a strategic measure to galvanise the nation in support of the Reds, GU orchestrated a promotional campaign at the Main Mall today, offering a 'buy-one-get-one' deal. Although the ticket sales initiative started at 9am, GU declared by midday that the tickets had been completely sold out.

This remarkable accomplishment signifies that a sizeable contingent of 200 enthusiasts has secured entry to the match, further amplifying the prevailing excitement merely three days before the encounter. Moyagoleele aspire to attain full occupancy of the 22,500-capacity stadium, given that ticket prices stand at a nominal P20 for the general areas, while the premier seating in the grand stand is valued at P50.
