The Emergency Committee of Confederation of African Football (CAF) has
approved resumption dates for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations
qualifiers and the Africa qualifying group stage of 2022 FIFA World
Cup.
This means a busy schedule awaits the participating teams, with
double-headers from November 2020 through to November 2021 in the
battle for spots to the final tournament of the two competitions.
According to a statement from CAF, the schedules for the two
competitions have had to be revised in light of the COVID-19 outbreak
which halted many sports activities across the continent and beyond
for some time.
For Cameroon 2021, the qualifiers will hold from Nov. 9 to Nov. 17,
2020, with the Day three and Day four matches, while the penultimate
and ultimate matches take place from March 22 to March 30 2021.
The forty teams in contention for the five slots for Qatar 2022 will
commence the journey between May 31 and June 15, 2021 with the Day one
and Day two matches.
From Aug. 30 to Sept. 17, the Day three and Day four matches are
expected to take place, with Day five and Day six matches fixed for
Oct. 4 to Oct. 12, 2021.
The Playoff matches have been scheduled for Nov. 8 to Nov 16, 2021.
Meanwhile, CAF has said it was monitoring the situation closely and
working with the relevant authorities with regards to hosting of the
matches and would make pronouncements accordingly.
