As expected, the semi final of the AFC Asian Cup 2019 between Iran and Japan is a sold out.
The match on Monday in Al Ain will be played in the new Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium which has a capacity of 25,000 seats. It is expected that the majority of the fans will be Iranians living in UAE and quite a few who will be coming from Iran for the match. The last match that was a sell out involved Team Melli in the match in Dubai’s Al Maktoum stadium vs. Iraq. Tickets were sold in black market for that match.
The second semi final will be played in the main Zayed Sport City stadium which twice as big as the one in Al Ain.
