Newlook Sylhet stadium to allow 17,000 spectators for Bangladesh-Mongolia match www.thedailystar.net
A total of 17,000 tickets have been put on sale for the FIFA international friendly match between Bangladesh and Mongolia, to be played at the Sylhet District Stadium on Tuesday evening.
The match will kick off at 5:30pm local time, with local fans to be allowed at full capacity in an international football match for the first since the start of the pandemic.

The last time Sylhet District Stadium hosted an international football match was in the Bangabandhu Gold Cup in 2018.
However, with the country's premier football venue Bangabandhu National Stadium under long-term renovation, the Sylhet District Stadium is currently the only FIFA-approved venue and has recently enjoyed a facelift with colourful seats replacing concrete seating arrangements.
The venue is currently hosting Abahani as the home team in the Bangladesh Premier League.
"We are hosting an international match after a long time. We have taken promotional campaigns to encourage people to come to the stadium. There will be raffle draws on tickets, with motorcycle, refrigerator, among prizes," informed Mahiuddin Ahmed Selim, BFF's executive committee member and general secretary of Sylhet District Sports Association.
"We are getting some response, albeit slowly, but we are hopeful to have a full capacity contest," the football official added.
