Hundreds of fans have queued early on Wednesday to buy tickets for the SAFF Women’s Championship final between Nepal and Bangladesh.

Although the match is scheduled to kick off at 6:30pm, eager supporters gathered at ticket booths well before sunrise, determined to secure their place at the Dashrath Stadium.

After exceeding capacity during the Nepal-India semi-final, the All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) decided to handle ticket sales directly. Tickets are available at Jawalakhel Football Ground, ANFA headquarters in Saatdobato, and the Army Officers’ Club in Sundhara.

Tickets, priced at Rs500 for general admission and Rs1,000 for VIP seats, are in high demand as Nepal eyes its maiden title.
