# Kuwait Football Association Resigns All Board of Directors to Hold Home Game 'Message'

The board of directors of the Kuwait Football Association, which caused Kuwaiti soccer fans to suffer from a heat wave outside the stadium, resigned to take responsibility for this.

"Seven board executives submitted their resignations collectively after investigating ticket sales and logistics problems at home games against Iraq at the Jabeur al-Ahmad International Stadium."

The Kuwait Football Association also accepted the resignations of Salah al-Khanaiwa, the association's secretary general, and Mohamed Abbas, the association's public relations team leader, along with the announcement of an "unacceptable fault."

The incident in question occurred in the home match of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA World Cup between North Korea and the U.S. against Iraq at Jabeur Al Ahmad International Stadium in Kuwait on the 10th.

At that time, the Kuwait Football Association's inexperienced administrative measures prevented some home fans from entering the stadium even after purchasing tickets, and some fans entered the stadium even though they did not have tickets, causing great confusion.

Fans who failed to enter in a managerial manner had to wait for a long time outside the stadium in the heat wave, and some fans collapsed while pleading for water, "KUNA" reported.

Kuwait, in a chaotic mood due to the resignation of top KFA executives, invites South Korea, led by Hong Myung-bo, to the Jabeur al-Ahmad International Stadium on Nov. 14. [동행복권파워볼](https://www.homeplate.kr)
