Loftus Versfeld Locked Down: Mamelodi Sundowns vs AS FAR final first-leg sold out

Mamelodi Sundowns have confirmed that every single ticket for the highly anticipated CAF Champions League final first leg against Morocco’s AS FAR has been snapped up. The announcement seals Loftus Versfeld Stadium’s fate as a fortress of yellow and green on Sunday, 17 May 2026, when the Brazilians host their North African rivals in front of a capacity crowd.

The club revealed that gates will open early at 12:00 PM, with kick-off scheduled for 16h00. Fans are urged to arrive well ahead of time to soak in the atmosphere of what promises to be one of the most electrifying nights in Pretoria’s football history.

Management has issued a stern warning that no tickets will be sold at the venue on match day. Supporters without tickets are advised not to travel to the stadium, as entry will be strictly limited to those holding valid passes. The club emphasized that this measure is to ensure safety, order, and a seamless experience for ticket holders.

For those unable to secure a seat, Sundowns have confirmed that the clash will be broadcast live on SABC and SuperSport, ensuring millions of fans across South Africa and beyond can witness the drama unfold. The broadcast is expected to capture the intensity of a final that pits South Africa’s champions against Morocco’s giants in a battle for continental supremacy.

Loftus Versfeld is set to roar at full capacity, and anticipation is at fever pitch. The sold‑out announcement underscores the magnitude of the occasion — a historic showdown where Sundowns will look to seize the advantage in the first leg before traveling to Rabat for the decisive return.
